The Salad Boys come by their Flying Nun sound honestly, hailing as they do from the label's birthplace of Christchurch, New Zealand. The second album, and first for Trouble in Mind, Metalmania has the jangle, the low-key songwriting, the off-handed vocal style, and the melodic skill of great Nun bands like the Chills, the Bats, and the Clean down pat. It's almost certainly second nature to a band raised on that music. The trio also seem to have soaked in the sound of mid-'80s American jangle pop, and it's easy to hear bits of .

When Metalmania is good, it's nearly transcendent, as much as a pop album can be. The melodic kick in the last minute of opener "Here's No Use" is as bracing as sunlight slanting through dust-motes on a beautiful day, and "Dream Date", the album's first single, is driving, energetic, and charming. What Metalmania is slightly short on is the underlying grit present in much of the work of Salad Boys' forebears, one of the elements that kept even the poppiest of the Flying Nun bands (the Bats, the Chills, Able Tasmans) from sounding too cloying. Existential sadness haunts so much of New Zealand’s indie pop but there are three or four tracks on Metalmania that feel like dreamy filler, tracks so airy that they never quite make the emotional impact they could or should. There isn’t quite enough dissonance to them, not enough low end, not enough movement, not enough curiosity.

Metalmania finds the trio varying their intensity between songs, though they're all melodic exercises built to stick with you after a few spins.
