Pop, rock, and art songs about discordant living, misrepresentation, life, afterlife, love, and love "after hours." Scandalous. Undeniably catchy songs with incredible production, arrangements, champion crooning, and a host of extras. Jane magazine says they sound "like Pere Ubu meets Belfegore meets The Tar Babies meets a way less chilly Notwist with a smidge of Metric thrown in." Which is to say, great.
