A rule of thumb about Moonshake: The tracks with Margaret Feidler singing are fantastic and the ones where the guy sings are, well, not.

There are now 3 Laika records. I flipped over the first one the very first time I heard it. I didn't like the second one at first, but it quickly grew on me for being more consistently good and for it's musical inventiveness (nobody rocks 7/8 better than Laika). I've heard the third album twice and both times it annoyed me. I have not bought it, but I suspect that more listens would not help this one. It suffers from something that a lot of musically inventive bands eventually suffer from: prog rock wankery from too many virtuosic guest musicians.
