Loud And Quiet
The only weak links here are the groaning asides at the end of several tracks that break the coherence of the album, but really, when the rest of it is this fun, who cares?

It’s a bold step away from the grimy surf-punk that made the band famous, but anyone who’s old enough to feel the buzz wearing off will be right there with Fidlar
