Cool messed up post punky pop Fire Engines meets Lilliput, Raincoats and Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd. Juan's reference to the Cherry Red label of lore comes to mind. Duet project w female vocs provided by Welsh Cate Le Bon with Tim Presley trade w his, Brit accents come through only adding to London 1979 feel. Dissonance and angular beats, guitars but all with a strange psychedelic sheen. Great stuff.

1) (3:50) simple pop, childlike melodies and approach, Barrett'esque 2)* (4:18) upbeat bouncy post punky cool. 3)* (3:51) female vocs tripped out effects, synthy 4) (5:27) low fi swingy strange silly fucked up bluesy, doo rag/bob log meets Fire Engines 5) (3:27) now a raincoats/lilliput simplicity comes through, fem vocs 6)* (6:43) very raincoats Lilliput simple and cute 7)* (6:37) psyche guitar noodling disjunct drums w cate asking Tim do I like that dog 8) (2:10) very simple pink Floyd with that organ tone 9)* (5:15) cool plod heavy beat w pitch changed guitars, again w the simple Barrett
