Anybody here remember when music was fun? Before this new millenium of rappers who think their ghetto anecdotes are more important than the music, people with dated hair whining about things being "beaudifawl", folks dressed as monsters screaming in your face and chicks who don't eat enough telling you how sexy they think they are, some of you might remember that there was a time when chart music was all about having a good time.
So okay, music is still fun. Particularly when you have bands like My Chemical Romance, who even put on a comedy show whilst they perform (unintentionally). But it's such a nice break to hear a group like the rather overlooked Spray (I have no idea where the name came from, let's just pretend it doesn't sound dodgy) who use today's musical technology to create music which doesn't take itself so seriously.

The whole thing is just great fun. If you're into synth pop, remember the 80s, and just want a good time, I highly reccomend it. Not for the lactose intolerant. Keep it in the fridge or it'll go mouldy.
Full 'review' with previews/clips of the songs you can listen to:

Good stuff.
