Details: Amazon.ca Casualties of the 1995 demise of its first record company, I.R.S., after three albums, Dada reemerges on a new label, MCA, with this eponymous effort. It's a solid effort, indeed. The Danny Kotchmar-produced album starts strong with "Information Undertow," a tongue-in-cheek Brit-pop-meets-Lou-Reed take on the media. "Playboy in Outerspace" is another standout, with its trippy Beck-like guitars and harmonies reminiscent of Simon & Garfunkel. "California Gold" sports an uncanny resemblance to War's "Low Rider," but with Dada's trademark Beatlesque touches. Which leads to one complaint: Dada relies too heavily on its overpowering Beatles musical references. Still, Dada has come a long way since 1992's inexplicable hit, "Dizz Knee Land." --Lesley Holdom Product Description Formed in the early '90's, Dada made an impact at alternative, Rock and AAA radio at a time when the airwaves were packed with grunge and the words, "melodies" and "harmonies" were all but forgotten. Through hard work and steady touring, dada built a strong following across America. While the band's past recordings can be used as a road map, the focus is on the present - the group's best album to date is Dada, their debut release for MCA. 1st radio track: "California Gold."
