Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released posthumously after Robyn Hitchcock disbanded the pioneering group, this compilation gathers a fascinating array of studio outtakes and live performances. The collection highlights their utterly unique, jangly collision of 1960s psychedelic sensibilities and nervous, post-punk energy. It functions as an essential, raw addendum to their seminal masterpiece 'Underwater Moonlight'.
