Legacy
Although parodied in later years, the band is now recognised as a pioneering act, capturing the zeitgeist of their time, particularly with the brilliant guitar work of Paul Reynolds and multi-layered hits such as "Space Age Love Song", Telecommunication and Modern Love is Automatic. The band also is noted for creating successful concept album, their debut, which alludes to an alien invasion of earth. The group came to the attention of legendary producer Phil Spector, who, upon hearing a demo of "I Ran" called the sound "phenomenal" and was in talks to produce an album. However, the talks fell apart when Spector and the band's label did not see eye to eye.
