Jack in the Box introduces a fresh sound featuring members of Census Of Hallucinations, Shay Tal & Rapoon. This 37-minute album boasts 11 tracks, offering a blend of psychedelic, pop-infused rock. The opening track, "That Sound," sets the tone with its serene guitar melodies and mind-expanding soundscapes, followed by a psychedelic rendition of The Beatles' "Hide Your Love Away," demonstrating the band's experimental flair. Throughout the album, tracks like "Giving Up the Ghost" and "Roundabout" maintain a relaxed yet captivating vibe, while "Circus Town" stands out with its tranquil atmosphere and ethereal vocals from Terri~B.
While some tracks like "Take Me Flying" and "Hold On" embrace a more upbeat, radio-friendly sound reminiscent of classic rock influences, others like "Theme to an Imaginary Song" delve into groovier territories with impressive guitar work. Terri's vocals add depth and contrast to tracks like "This Is Real," offering a hauntingly beautiful counterpoint to Tim Jones' lead vocals. The album concludes with "Reprise to an Imaginary Song," echoing some early 70's heavy rock influences and bringing the listener full circle through a diverse musical journey. Overall, "Do You Believe in Beetles?" offers a delightful listening experience, appealing to fans of Tim Jones' previous works and beyond.
