    It has a thick, loud sound that perfectly matches its subject matter, exploring the beauty and horror at the intersection of technology and celebrity.

    It's a long album but stays on full power for its entirety, with the endlessly catchy songs of alien worlds standing as some of the brightest and strangest material the Rentals have ever delivered.

    This is a spotty effort at best, and the loosely-connected space theme ends up putting some of the album's weaker material in the spotlight instead of allowing it to be glossed over as just another album track.
