Tally of the Yes Men is the debut album by the indie rock band Goldspot, released in 2005.[1][3]

Critical reception

[edit]

PopMatters called the record "a solid album of slightly melancholic pop songs built around a solid core of vocal melodies and compelling instrumentation."[4] The Los Angeles Times wrote that the album "washes down its classic pop songwriting with Cure Light (and other Britpop flavors), plus subtle Indian influences."[1] LA Weekly wrote: "A triumph of quality over fashion, Goldspot are a collage of Radiohead’s acoustic yearnings, the Smiths’ smarty-pop, clean ’n’ cultured arrangements and main man Siddhartha’s eyelids-fluttering vibrato."[5]
