Album Notes & Community Reviews

The remarkably obscure debut from Dan Bejar captures his earliest, most rudimentary songwriting efforts entirely on a 4-track cassette recorder. The album is incredibly lo-fi and frequently dissonant, masking his emerging poetic brilliance beneath chaotic acoustic strumming and abrasive electronic noise.
