Mark G This EP traverses 1950s-1970s rock 'n' roll styles, but is remade in The Cave Slinkies inimitable style.
Musically, it is a joy, with lyrics/vocals that play, especially in 'The Moron Song'.
This sounds like a band enjoying their lo-fi fun. Good stuff.
Favorite track: This is a love song.

Come down 01:37
Come down  Do you ever get one of those feelings you're just being tuned out? Tuned out? What did you say? Do you ever have one of those feelings you're walking around burned out? Move, boy! You're in the way! Because, sometimes, little things make me nervous.  What does? Love does.  Love does. Do you ever have one of those feelings everything is going to come down? Come down on your head! Do you ever have one of those feelings you're just being pushed 'round? Pushed 'round! Kicked in the head! Because, sometimes, little things can really hurt me.  What does? Love does.  Love does. Do you ever get one of those feelings moderation is a virtue? Virtue drives you insane! Do you ever get one of those feelings the fast lane won't hurt you? Hurt you? Hand me my cane! 'Cuz sometimes, little things drive me crazy. What does? Love does. Love does.  Love does.  Love drives me crazy.  What does? Love does.  Love does. Love does.  Love drives me crazy.  What does? Love does. Love does.

The Moron Song Sometimes, I wish I was a moron Then you wouldn’t be on My mind all the time Then I wouldn’t have to worry About what’s in your eyes The way they hypnotize me All day long I wouldn’t say, “I love you.” I wouldn’t bring you flowers We could act real stupid When we go play golf Sometimes, I wish I was a moron Then you wouldn’t be on My mind all the time You’d say, “Pick me up at seven.” It’s a quarter 'til eleven And I’m still looking for my key  You’d say, “There’s no need to bother, About what’s on your mind, plus, It’s hard to find your meaning anyway.” I wouldn’t say, “I need you.” I wouldn’t say, “Forever.” We could color pictures While we watch cartoons Sometimes, I wish I was a moron Then you wouldn’t be on My mind all the time Maybe, if I get my head straight, And I brush with Colgate You’d kiss me one more time Sometimes, I wish I was a moron Then you wouldn’t be on My mind all the time
