Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released during an incredibly prolific period for the San Francisco garage-rock group, this largely acoustic album showcases John Dwyer's softer, more eccentric freak-folk sensibilities. The brief, 24-minute record utilizes prominent flute, acoustic guitars, and clattering, lo-fi percussion to create a woozy, haunted campfire atmosphere. It acts as a fascinating, stripped-down detour between their much louder, fuzz-driven rock releases.
