...is the Pet Sounds of the 70s?
Agreed. I prefer it, but the comparison is logical.
Yeah sure, mainly because I can't think of a more fitting comparison. Not to mention Ben Orr had a better voice than Ric Ocasek just like Mike Love had a better voice than Brian Wilson.
Not really, since Pet Sounds was actually a good album. If the criteria for a 70s equivalent is just "good pop album from the 70s", then Nilsson Schmilsson is better, and by a Californian too, albeit lacking the group dynamics of the Beach Boys.

Uhm... try new wave. The Cars has nothing to do with Def Leppard.

And I'm not a fan of dorky surf music, but that's neither here nor there.

Okay? The Cars have much more calculated dork appeal than the Beach Boys.

Every normie and their mother likes the Beach Boys. Cars fans tend to range somewhere on the autism spectrum.
