Pop bands that deconstruct pop music are nothing new. But rarely are they this good.

It's cracking stuff and a definite Top 5 album of the year.

The Envelopes need to experiment, it’s true, but they also need Moogs and other tricks to add an edge to their unique hooks.

Demon sounds like a group of talented craftsman just getting warmed up.

Demon, the Envelopes' debut, is a near doppelganger of that album, down to its multitude of vocalists, its adorable accents ("It Is the Law", coming out something like Hopelandic), its short attention span, its 50s-style romanticism, and its infectious giddiness.

The album is called Demon, but there's nothing demonic about it. This is a summer pop albums, all sunny days and dripping Popsicles from the ice cream truck.

Demon is Swedish for "Demos," and this makes more sense than anything its English gloss has to offer because the songs on it are rough at the edges and crude in their charm.
