Real Groove's Dandys Rule OK review

Real Groove
Dandys Rule O.K.
by Grant McDougall
1996

I guess this is what you might call pop-art. Right from the start, the Dandys justify their album title. The first three-quarters is loaded with potent, blissful, chaotic psychedelia, wiggy pop and hazy, repetitive dream-like-you're-in-another-galaxy guitar rides. The Dandys draw out every sound repetitively and metronomically. I love 'em for it. The trip soars to its end on It's A Fast-Driving Fave-Up, an epic, superb, unfurling of hyper-droning fuzz rushes. The songs have that special quality of being both light, fluffy and poppy and willfully disturing and unreal. This'll flip your wig, silver or otherwise.
