I love that the guys' harmonies have more focus in this album; it's a very different balance than Expert In A Dying Field, but I like it!

Well... Like some people here, I never really liked that song! However, this is *so* much better than the original, for all the reasons already listed by deluded_marxist! The depth of feelings here, especially from the vocals but also the slow music, really is on a whole other level! Thanks to Tara Tantrum for taking me here! Highly recommended!!!

Undeniable melodies swim up from beneath layers of distortion and effects, making this a psych-pop winner.

The members of Big Slice rubbed shoulders with Britpop legends like Suede & Echobelly—no surprise when you hear their radiant, hooky songs.

So happy to stumble across this on vinyl while visiting NZ - and the accompanying mag is a piece of art in itself. Fab collection of brilliant songs from a host of super-talented artists released by one of my fave labels. Did I mention how happy I am?
