bof 1/5

In a nutshell: a weak prelude to Pet Sounds This album has two lukewarm singles and a tonne of filler. Some hints of Pet Sounds can be heard here but it doesn't have much else going for it. Overall: 2/10

What a dorky album cover - such a different time. Not exactly lyrical masterpieces - she’s my girl and I’m good to my baby. Ugh the patriarchy. So many gross yet childishly simplistic lyrics. I do like their voices? But unfortunately I paid attention to the words.

If there is a genre of music that really doesn’t stand up to the test of time, it’s The Beach Boys brand of harmony preppy-pop. The lyrics are cliched and borderline misogynistic. There was a time and a place for this. That time is not now and the place is not here.

Dreadful

No no no no no

People were STARVING for music in the 60s

60’s Don’t care

- puh so auf längere Strecke absolut gar nichts meins, fand ich dementsprechend super anstrengend

Just no

N/A Unavailable to stream

I have never been a fan of the beach boys and honestly, after listening to an hour of them...I realized that I didn't ever give them a chance. Now that I have, I REALLY hate the beach boys.

Nothing special with a weird ending

God, I hate the Beach Boys! I knew eventually Pet Sounds would come up, because "Brian Wilson is a genius". Sorry, this is the Alvin and the Chipmunks. Adults shouldn't have to listen to this shit.

The soundtrack of young white privilege.

It's okay

Too cheesy for me

The only album I’ve turned off. How boring and bland. Trash tier music

I really couldn’t get into this album. It has the slightest of inklings of what they’d go on to do with pet sounds, but it’s a really awkward middle child between the commercial early stuff and their later work, but not in a good way a la 1965 Beatles. It’s cheesy yet takes itself seriously, the lyrical matter and sound is redundant, not catchy enough to be a guilty pleasure without the stand out songs that they have on other albums. Won’t be revisiting.
