The latest from Seth Swirsky and Mike Ruekburg is a different animal to their debut.
Still in love with all things Beatley and Beachboys this time round they throw in nods to Steelye Dan, Elvis Costello and the Bryds.
These songs are crafted homages but, like Irish popsters Pugwash, messers Swirsky & Ruekburg are smart enough to place their own unique stamp on what could otherwise have slipped into pastiche.
Highlights are plentiful - Caught In The Middle is a pitch perfect early Lennon stomper, Sandreen a catchy as hell harmony drenched popper whilst both Picture and On A Summer Day would sit happily on a Sunflower era Beachboys album.
Flashes of Harrisoneque guitar, honky tonk piano and strings colour the beatgroup backings and smart musical flourishes are abundent.
Occasionally you find yourself wishing the Red Button boys would cut lose and rock out but its probably not far off the mark to say that As Far As Yesterday Goes is the best thing either songwriter has done.
