Dr. Ex & the Break-Ups
Moon Motel
(Headshrinker Records)
An astral-carnival sideshow, in upside-down orbit around lucky stars, contrives riotous carryings-on in the key of helium. Funhouse organ swirlings bedeck double-time rockery (wah-wah guitar bows in), as creatures great and small giggle-slide around Saturnian rings. Vocals indicating laughing gas soar and swoop in madcap elation. Perpetrators even go so far as to spray paint boffo Kihn spin. All that to the positive? Absotively! Only three of five cuts exceed two minutes, with none surpassing three, because time flies when you're up to kicks.
