lp LP
Oy with the instrumental first track. Luckily they move right into the slinky and sexy "Primitive" on track two. The rest of the album is a little too billowy and echoey for my taste, but I'm the guy who just doesn't get My Bloody Valentine, so what the hell do I know? I guess I like my music a little dirtier, or a little edgier or a little something that isn't this, uh, pleasant. Sure, that's what this album is: pleasant. It sounds really good, and has some flavors of Urge Overkill and some Brit pop (despite being from Brooklyn), but too often this stuff is more wallpaper than solid furniture.
