The evolutionary trajectory is shown through melodies that harmonize with electronic sounds.
This album marks a fresh start with a technology-infused 80s sound. It's a mature pop album that makes extensive use of synthesizers while maintaining beautiful choruses and a sense of melody.
The arrangements, centered around synth bass and electronic drums, pursue a modern '80s feel. Despite Brian Wilson's absence, the band's chorus ensemble resonates with exquisite balance. "Getcha Back" reconstructs classic harmonies over a modern rhythm, while "It's Gettin' Late" boasts a serene melody. Featuring meticulous mixing by producer Steve Levine, this album is a valuable record of a transitional period where tradition and innovation intertwine.
