Of course a band that unashamedly apes The Monkees would come up with their own board game. Charging players with corralling The Bicycles to a gig before it goes to their archrivals The Motorcycles, the DVD moves things along with amusing lo-fi comedy vignettes by local comics Holly Prazoff and Inessa Frantowski as well as the band themselves. It all evokes those endearingly naff video board games like Nightmare, which suits the five-piece's jangly cutie-pie pop just fine. Well-designed as a game, with a basket of extras and Easter eggs (music videos, live performances, etc.), this package is no different from the catchy album that spawned it: all handclaps, hooks and bubblegum; unpretentious fun that only rarely cloys.
