Before My Dinosaur Life I thought I liked only one song by Motion City Soundtrack. I can safely say now I like at least 12 songs by them. I bought the album on a whim after seeing a live performance by the band and it very quickly grew on me. Listening to this album is pure joy from start to finish.
Oddly, the lead single 'Her Words Destroyed my Planet' is my least favourite song on the album. Which is not to say that it's a bad song it's just that the rest of the album is that good. But there is no one song I actually dislike and it's tough to pick a favourite. I love the driving intensity of Disappear, it's impossible to not sing along to the chorus of @!#?@!, the imagery in Delirium is captivating, and History Lesson and Hysteria just plain rock.
My Dinosaur Life is pop rock at it's finest and I love it.
