The Dandy Warhols return with their sixth album, Earth to the Dandy Warhols. Here are 13 esoteric rock tracks that remind me of Beck and the Talking Heads. Track 7, “Love Song,” is an accessible, soft rock track. Track 9, “Mis Amigos,” is zippy, and makes me think of The Beach Boys. Track 10, the hit single “The Legend of the Last Outlaw Truckers aka the Ballad of Sheriff Shorty,” is pretty dark … and it’s pretty addictive, too. Reviewed by Sara Cosgrove
