Análisis (en inglés) - :
One of the defining albums of the mid-'90s {\indie} scene, {$the Apples in Stereo}'s full-length debut is one of those records that marks a sea change in musical attitudes, akin to {$Mudhoney}'s {&"Touch Me I'm Sick"} or {$Pavement}'s early singles. Besides being the breakthrough release of the {@Elephant 6} collective, which alone is responsible for many of the better albums of the decade, {^Fun Trick Noisemaker} is the album that defines the {\post-grunge} {\indie pop} shift from sullen negativity into a kind of cockeyed, giddy optimism, and is also among the handful of albums that turned {$Brian Wilson}, {$Arthur Lee}, and {$Burt Bacharach} into cool names to drop at the record store. The album opens with a plundered bit of sonic ephemera from an old stereo-effects demonstration record that plunges directly into the manic throb of {&"Tidal Wave,"} where {$Hilarie Sidney}'s thudding drums sound like {&"I Want Candy"} on speed and {$Robert Schneider}'s goofy mixed-metaphor lyrics and boyish vocals blend with sci-fi vintage synth whooshes and a killer fuzz-guitar riff out of {~the Fillmore West}'s heyday. From that breathless start, the album skips blithely from high point to high point, like the sugar-sweet {\bubblegum} melody and "la la la" harmonies of {&"Glowworm"} and the hyperspeed rush of {$the Buzzcocks}-meet-{$the Banana Splits} {&"Dots 1-2-3."} Childlike songs like {$Sidney}'s lone vocal showcase, {&"Winter Must Be Cold,"} add a charmingly naïve sensibility to what could otherwise be a collection of ideas plundered from impossibly hip record collections. Several years' worth of albums covering the same territory might have dulled the album's freshness just a touch, and the group's technical competence would grow with each successive album, but {^Fun Trick Noisemaker} is a minor masterpiece. [The Japanese version includes the bonus tracks {&"Shine (In Your Mind)"} and {&"Thank You Very Much."}] ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide
