This is A. Rex's third album, albeit a mini one at a mere six tracks long. It starts with 'Too Smart For Me', a gorgeous summery pop tune, understated and warming. 'Magazine' reminds you of Nick Lowe, or one of the seventies Stiff tunesmiths. 'Fight For You' is another cracking pop tune, the band sounding kind of slack and weary as they toss out another great melody, a bit like the Lemonheads.

'Not Like We're In Love' breaks away and soars before 'Come on Pilot' closes the album. 'Come on Pilot' could be Randy Newman MOR gold and I mean that in the nicest way possible. Three albums in and the tunes don't seem like drying up anytime yet.
