Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following an ill-fated stint on Virgin Records, Jennifer Herrema and Neil Hagerty returned to their independent roots with a reinvigorated, abrasive energy. 'Accelerator' is a blown-out, lo-fi barrage of sleazy garage rock and noise-pop hooks, reaffirming the duo's position as uncompromising architects of 90s alternative slacker culture.
