Album Notes & Community Reviews

Helmed by producer Kramer and vocalist Ann Magnuson, this sprawling double album is a surreal, acid-drenched masterpiece of underground sound collage. The release seamlessly blends absurd spoken-word poetry, heavily distorted garage rock riffs, and extensive pop-culture sampling to skewer late-eighties excess.
