    The Armchairs fall somewhere in the same camp as a handful of other 60s-esque pop acts cropping up. But where exactly they draw inspiration from is somewhat more of a mystery, because this certainly isn't the simple pairing of Beatles and Beach Boys that we've come to expect. Instead, we're treated to an odd menagerie of Zombies, Kinks, and earlier, goofier Floyd (you know, before the rest of the band decided not to pickup Syd). This is a slight, but welcome, change of pace, and what's even more welcoming is the way they throw it all together. The Armchairs manage to land it somewhere right in between pyschadelic rock and power pop, a sweet spot of controlled lunacy.

    With Horse's Mouth, Virtual Virgin, and Paper Masques
