Please Step Out of the Vehicle- Sleeping right & the best in homeopathic medicine

Well, it may not be the most memorable of titles and names, but it's longer than hell!

Howdy ho! Your friendly neighborhood alternative reviewer here with today's installment. Please step out of the vehicle is a another in a long list of bands I have not heard of until now. They have put together what I call a schizophrenic disc. I have reviews a lot of bands that really change up the sound or beat on a CD. PSOV tries to do that, but they seem to confine themselves to a handful of sounds. The first track will certainly get your attention. Opening to the refrains of 80's video games, the opening track quickly decides to lump about 2-3 tracks together to create a song. I'm glad the whole disc did not follow suit. It is an interesting listen, but not the best sound.
It was touched on again in later tracks as a seemingly ordinary little song descended into audio hell for a few seconds before recovering and walking gently to the finish. About halfway through, things mellow out a bit. Real instruments are played, real songs are sung, and real musicianship is heard! I think it actually bears multiple listens in order to grasp the whole thing. They pull off a nice 50-60's retro rock sound at one point, and it's obvious there are a lot of things they want to do musically. I would certainly look forward to see what they go with next.

I was very much on the fence when it came to trying to rate this disc. It's not great, but it's certainly not bad. I settled on a difficult B. I just wish I knew how.
