I'm not sure they allow people in this frame of mind into recording studios these days, and I am not sure I would play this again, but I am kind of pleased that it exists. I felt prurient and uncomfortable at times listening in on someone's clearly-fragile mental state committed to tape, but I admire that it is strange, unsettling and a little unfathomable. Pop it is not.

I was tempted to dismiss this as demos that should have remained as demos. But then Weighted Down kicked in. There's a richness and rawness here. Skip was clearly a troubled fella. I stuck with the album and rather enjoyed the downbeat feel. I've heard worse 90's misrerabilist indie shite.
