    This album is unique as it features their early punk stylings but also shows The Hellflowers ability to not beholden to any one genre. It opens with an atmospheric surf song “Vamonos” that sets the mood for the oncoming rock n roll anthem “Little Boogie”. “Music’s My Love” is up next, a love song that gets stuck in your head from the first beat. A couple upgrades from EP’s past with “Running Through The Fog” and the fiery “String” all about a woman's independence. “I Cried” is an unreleased break up song, followed by the desperate punk banger “Fucked Up Nation” all about the hopelessness that is our current state. On “Control” Alex Mack tries his hand at being lead singer, followed by their take on the Devo classic “Girl You Want”. Finishing off the journey with an alt country vibe is “Way Out West”.

lyrics

She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drips on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want

You hear her calling everywhere you turn
You know you're headed for the pleasure burn
But the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue
She's the real thing but you knew it all along

She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want

Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind spinnin'
Why don't we just admit it's all over
She's just the girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want

She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want

Solo

She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drips on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want

Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind spinnin'
Why don't we just admit it's all over
She's just the girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want

She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
She's just the girl, she's just the girl
The girl you want
