"Press" - nah, this's exactly the kind of '80s sound' that broes me to total numbness.
This is the kind of eighties sound that drives me to ecstacy. Twenty-four tracks madness! Linda's psychotic harmonies! Paul's guitar fills!

CANNOT RECALL THE RADNESS OF THESE GUITAR PARTS

I cannot imagine a world in which "Press" does not exist.

"Press" and "Only Love Remains" were great. The rest of that album was not.

On the Wild Life front, however, didn't find it today in any of my hometown's shops. So got me 3 other Maccasir's instead, he.

oooooooooOOOOHHHH!!
no.
a few years ago I was driving with a friend to a Panda Bear show (the man from the Animal Collective). he put on "Darkroom." He asked us all in the car "who do you think this is?" We had no idea. It was wild. Listened to the whole record after that. Was blown away.
I don't like Ram at all. but Too Many People is good.
now JUNK? you wanna talk junk. you ever heard the Esher acoustic demos? when paul, george, and john got together at george's house in May 1968 and laid down all the songs they wrote in India. beautiful collection of double-tracked acoustics and vocals, messy and stoned and gorgeous. the demo of Junk on there has stuck with me ever since.
i ran out of songs so I put band on the run.
boom!
