Product Review

Their second album for Sub Pop (following 2005's "Apologies To The Queen Mary" - scanned 90K+) might just be this generation's "Marquee Moon" or an indie rock "Chinese Democracy" released thirty years early. Better though, to think of it as the sound of a band edging forward into a wispy darkness, one hand reaching out, the other firmly clutching the past. Look for them on tour in July and October.
