Album Notes & Community Reviews

Breaking a ten-year hiatus, Kristin Hersh's legendary alternative rock trio returned with an astoundingly ambitious thirty-two-track double album. Packaged uniquely within an accompanying book, the record is a dizzying, fractured collection of brief, angular indie-rock sketches that perfectly recapture their classic mid-1980s nervous energy.
