There is a long list of early '90s albums that were unjustly ignored in the wake
of the era's grunge explosion
A lot of them were metal releases, but when it comes to alternative rock records,
Dada's Puzzle would be right at the top. Psychedelia and sunny SoCal sounds
undercut by healthy skepticism ("Dizz Knee Land") regarding the region's charms
render Puzzle worthy of its title, an impression reinforced by the enigmatic,
Rorschach-like cover art. Power pop and even some funk add to the allure of this noirish
album, which is as hard to classify as it is to resist.
Finally, and with the full support of the band, Puzzle is making its U.S. vinyl debut for
Record Store Day, in double-LP pressing in strawberry with black swirl vinyl, complete
with an insert featuring lyrics.
