Slanted And Enchanted

3.6 - I don’t catch the same buzz off this slacker rock. At best, I think they do a good job of tempering some of the indie rock motifs of their time. There’s a little noisy fuzz guitar reminiscent of My Bloody Valentine on “Loretta’s Scars”, jagged guitar soundscapes like Sonic Youth, and drily delivered poetry similar to Silver Jews. Unfortunately the sum doesn’t nearly live up to the parts.
