about

This is currently a free download, just enter 0 in the name your price, enjoy. "Overall, the feeling is of wondrous, almost child-like beauty: the Pixies, Pavement and Beck are all reference points but they are filtered through something that's fresh, inspiring - and maybe even new" Rolling Stone

“A debut that is smarter than that of your average Archers Of Loaf/Pavement inspired rock four piece” Juice Magazine

released February 15, 1998
