Oingo Boingo-Only A Lad

What can i say, this is secretly my favorite Oingo Boingo album. The entire album sounds like a fucked up concept album that only the genius of the likes of Danny Elfman, Steve Bartek and
Kerry Hatch could come up with. 'Nasty Habits', 'Little Girls' and 'Only A Lad' have the trademarked Mystic Knights of The Oingo Boingo cabaret like choral sections (you can hear early shades of Nightmare Before Christmas sing alongs in most of the tracks), while 'Perfect System' and 'Controller' still manage to scare even the most free minded with their frequent time signatures. This album should be the starting point for new Oingo listeners...maybe.
Oh yea, The Kinks cover kind of ruins the album from being completely perfect, it's a decent cover but sometimes i skip over it.

"Little Girls" — 3:44
"Perfect System" — 3:46
"On The Outside" — 3:39
"Capitalism" — 3:40
"You Really Got Me" (Ray Davies) — 4:40
"Only A Lad" — 3:56
"What You See" — 3:43
"Controller" — 3:24
"Imposter" — 2:59
"Nasty Habits" — 4:06
