Album Notes & Community Reviews

Stepping out of his bedroom studio to record in a professional facility, the pioneer of lo-fi indie pop delivers a slightly polished yet deeply eccentric collection of songs. The album effortlessly shifts between jangly power pop, surreal psychedelia, and quirky new wave, held together by Moore's masterful, highly prolific melodic sensibilities.
