Listening to this CD gives me flashbacks to all the great alternative music coming out of the Europe in the mid- to late-80s, with plenty of synthesizers, minor chord progressions and lyrics about love and kissing. Musicaly influences come from The Cure and Depeche Mode, with additional nods to Radiohead and Pink Floyd, although younger listeners will younger folks will recognize lots of Beck.
