In a perfect world, summer hits these songs would indeed be: fusing British Invasion-era popcraft with a California beach-bum vibe and a lo-fi sonic attitude, Beaches and Canyons 1992-96 captures the crazed excesses of the West Coast experience with remarkable accuracy. Not only do the Summer Hits sing about all the things that truly matter -- girls, movies, motorbikes, and illicit substances, for starters -- but they gild their infectious melodies with "sha-la-la-la" choruses, hip cultural references (there's even a track about Stereolab's Laetitia Sadier) and thick, dirty layers of feedback, forging a sun-baked pop brilliance bordering on the transcendent. Channeling the spirit of the Sixties through a blown speaker and sounding for all the world like the Beach Boys on a bad trip, Beaches and Canyons is a glorious mess of sound, sun and sand -- catch the wave. ~ Jason Ankeny
