girly, white soul indie pop
one of the best of the new year=girly pop heaven.
if you just feel like relaxing w/ a 60's based hook strung out to logical conclusions, this is the album!
FCC CLEAN.
MR. ESQ. SEZ: MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW!!
RIYL: hospitality, 10,000 maniacs, altered images,
rosebuds, jessie baylin, et al
PLAY THESE TRACKS: 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9.

*1. slow, jangle build up pop.
2. dancy, soulful, moogful. stereolab at most pop.
*3. BEST TRACK: so cloying, can't be refused.
*4. forlorn and girly brit 80's stuff. something natalie merchant would sing.
5. slow and soulful.
*6. sweet 60's romantic pop. dreamy.
7. upbeat, mid-fast, 70's brit glammy beat.
*8. dreamy, slow to mid.
*9. BEST TRACK II: forlorn, stringy to increasingly cloying. sweet, too sweet.
10. surfy sweet end.
