A spontaneous autobiographical disclosure. A free-form slo-mo listening party. A song a day. Yours to enjoy.

Gimme ah-ooh in your chorus
It always gets me how anything Steve Albini touches sounds like Steve Albini, no matter what the band has to say about it. I'm not a huge fan of his leaden style. Or his killjoyness, which is probably not unrelated. The drums always seem to drag. The music makes me visualize a recording studio, rather than the bands' own sound pictures. But this one defies that gravity. It glides and shimmers. And in 7/8 time, no less!
We are not in it for the money. Songblague runs on communitarian values, love of music, and a dash of vanity. If you like what you're hearing, please purchase it from one of the remaining retailers who would like to sell it to you.
