A Hargreaves of Cuffnells;
the spoils of impropriety;
this reckoning of daydreams;
an innocence of misguided intentions.
A weirdness of flangers;
the sounding of abstract fantasy;
a fault of misatributation;
this mystery of actualization.
A punishment of welts awaits
your fascination of crushes.
An artifice of flames engulf
the opulence of distraction.
An ignorance of details prevent
a competence of facility.
A flush, a sord, a suit, a puddling
come out of the sky and they stand there.
What counts in counts, in actuality:
A drift, a drove, a charm, a colony.
An ostentation, a pod, a pack, a company.
A zeal, a trip, a must'ring, a lamentation, a murmuration.
A scurry, a host, a rookery, an unkindness.
When accounting for what counts it would be wise not to discount these terms of venery.

this record is so evocative of a specific time of day, in a specific room, in a specific time of my childhood in 1991, that I get kind of lost in memory when I listen. this is music overflowing with warmth and kindness, a soft world for anyone who needs it Ashley Rivera

This is a most exciting surprise bag of unusual songs, each of them thoroughly different from the other ones. But they have one thing in common: They are ingenious. It's not easy to find a drawer where to put this music in. I'm reluctant to use the term "experimental", because this can mean anything, and nothing as well. Out of the established genres, "alternative rock" probably fits best, but this music is so alternative that it blows up the confines of the genre. In my collection, I'm tagging music like this as "avantgarde", to express that it's somehow ahead of the usual listening experiences. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)

Stunning ... The opener has very much a 70s sound, somewhere between jazz-rock fusion and progressive rock. But the band show their exuberence and expertise by carving their own path.
Such a shame there's no more. Peter Jones
