Visions of Excess is the second album by the Golden Palominos.[5][6] The band's line-up was substantially different from their first album.[7] It includes a cover of Moby Grape's "Omaha," with Michael Stipe singing lead.
Critical reception
Trouser Press called Visions of Excess "a brilliant neo-pop album of tuneful, lyrical songs."[6]John Leland at Spin wrote, "The generally stellar accompaniment occasionally gets buried in the blustery mix. But more often, it gets subsumed in songwriting that is sometimes just adequate.[8]
