2001, Quarterstick Records
A comprehensive document of Shannon Wright's unique and consistent capacity for writing beautiful songs. The record highlights haunting melodies that wind themselves through Shannon¹s dark and poetical landscapes. All Music Guide's Thom Jurek writes, 'The tracks range from the haunted chamber pop of 'Vessel for a Minor Malady,' with its sweeping string and piano choruses and broken lyric, to the screaming rawness of 'Less Than a Moment,' with its angular melody line and deconstructed rock chorus, to the gothically shambolic title track done in waltz time, which has the protagonists singing with a loss so total it upsets the balance of the world...'
