Solo album from the lead singer of Karate. His subdued electric guitar and weary voice makes for kinda a folky, jazzy, dim-the-lights-and-sip-tea-by-the-hearth album. Very intimate, casual sounding. -nari

8. slow, with chords that stretch out over time
9. shimmery arpeggios
10. very short; almost a rambling narrative
