Following the demise of Game Theory, Scott Miller formed this new ensemble, continuing his pursuit of dense, hyper-literate power pop. Produced by Mitch Easter, the complex, highly eclectic arrangements employ intense studio manipulation and tape effects, embedding razor-sharp jangle-pop melodies within a subtly experimental, progressive framework.
