THERE IS NO MORE TO SAY

11.20.08
Listen to THERE IS NO MORE TO SAY by The Millennium.

Unfortunately, due to real life constraints, I don't have time to do a long write-up about, and thereby at least attempt to do justice to, the awesomeness of The Millennium.

Check back in the comments later for more detailed discussion, perhaps, but basically I'm firmly of the opinion that this album is the best 60s California pop record ("'Pet Sounds" for buddhist paranoiacs'") you haven't ever heard of. Think about that.

I think you are really overrating the Millennium.

Maybe, but of all of the albums that "you've never heard of" meaning pretty d@mn obscure, what would be better? The Smoke, sure maybe, WCPAEB, possibly. It's not a huge category. And I just really do think that 5-6 tracks on "Begin" are super great pop.

Maybe you don't like his voice, which is a little Kevin Barnes-ish.

Question is, who is singing?

I'd say "Joy of a Toy" fits that category.

I'm a fan of "Joy of a Toy" but I don't think it qualifies as obscure "60s California pop"!

Um, I thought the series was just about psych-pop favorites.
