Pitchfork says: “The sprawling and spectacular Cindy Lee album is an essential trove of music. Each song is like a foggy transmission from a rock’n’roll netherworld with its own ghostly canon of beloved hits.” To me, just a really solid album of moody lo-fi goodness, reminiscent of e6 and the like. Only available to stream for free on their site or YT or as a download. Donations suggested.
