Why? Why remake this lazy album lazily, track by track, note by note? It probably wasn't very hard to make, so I guess maybe the question is, why not? I guess you got me there.
Harry Nilsson's original Pussy Cats failed to improve on any of the songs it covered, but at least he gave them his own spin. The Walkmen just recreate Nilsson's spin precisely - even recreating seemingly spontaneous moments like the singalongs on Loop De Loop and the namedrops on Rock Around the Clock. It's not that it's an altogether bad listen, exactly, but it's a confoundingly pointless creation I can't find any reason to revisit, other than out of morbid curiosity 2.5/5
