Dishwalla: J.R. Richards (vocals, Hammond organ, piano, synthesizer); Rodney Browning (guitar, vocals); Scot Alexander (bass, tabla, bells, synthesizer, vocals); George Pendergast (drums, percussion, vocals). Additional personnel: Andy Kravitz (programming). Recorded at Studio 4, Conshohocken, Pennsylvania and Skip Saylor Recording, Hollywood, California. Dishwalla's debut album features alternative pop-rock with a hint of soul, and it's distinguished by powerful melodies and edgy guitars. "Explode" is a nice dichotomy of '80s pop and rough guitar noise, creating a tension characteristic of Dishwalla's music. The band often uses contrasting musical styles in the same song to keep things interesting. "Counting Blue Cars" catches the listener's attention with the line, "Tell me all your thoughts on God/I'd really like to meet her," addressing religion from an appealingly innocent perspective. Kitschy, pop-culture references lend a retro appeal to both "Charlie Brown's Parents," which is about communication problems (remember the unintelligible adult voices from "Peanuts" movies?), and "Miss Emma Peel," a tribute to the character from television's "Avengers."
