the ark

Continuing in the same lysergic-pop vein as their joyously experimental Of Cabbages & Kings, Chad Stuart & Jeremy Clyde let everything fly on The Ark, their wide-eyed Columbia finale. It¹s a handwrought gem studded with glittering acid-pop originals like ³Painted Dayglow Smile² and ³The Emancipation of Mr. X,² from an album that was fitting testimonial to the radio- friendly duo who changed from moptop minstrels to dazzling musical sculptors, right before our eyes.
