TUTV: Best covers album ever, to my ears. Why? Because The Dandys do a fantastic
job by revitaziling all those classic crackers, the buzzing and fuzzing Warhols way. No
lousy copy/paste performances whatsoever, what happens/happened on so many
covers records.
Pin Ups excels in sonic ingeniousness and absorbing implementation.
They speed up originals, they slow down originals, but most of all, they immerse
them all in a whirling psychedelic bath, resulting in amazeballs renditions, revved
up with a mind-blowing barrage of hefty hooks, unlimited licks, rotating riffs, and Herculean bass/drum/synth extravaganza.
If you’re not familiar with some/all of the originals (people that live on Mars), you would think that Pin Ups is the Portland‘s mean groove machine’s new original LP. For those about to rock, The Dandy Warhols pin you up. After all these years, they’re not in the slightest passé.
