Album Notes & Community Reviews

Emerging from the heart of the San Francisco garage-psych boom, Tim Cohen's collective stepped into a slightly cleaner, more focused studio environment for their third LP. The recording effortlessly blends vintage 1960s pop jangle with desert-rock twang, showcasing an impressive maturity and melodic clarity within the lo-fi indie scene.
