Album Notes & Community Reviews
The influential Cleveland avant-garage outfit took an unexpected turn toward polished pop-rock under the production of Gil Norton. Despite the glossier sheen and more accessible hooks, David Thomas's eccentric vocal delivery and anxious lyricism keep the project rooted in their idiosyncratic aesthetic.
