i haven't listened to this band since the 90s. but alas, the 99 cent bin came calling and i picked up the new one called "bare stripped naked". i always thought of them as an indie pop/rock band but you couldn't tell from this release. mostly acoustic, some piano, very sparse altogether. the pace and devilish chartruese (sp?) vocals are a bit to wade through but for the most part it's a good album with a few great hits. released on minty fresh. i only got the cd copy but the real release comes with a fully loaded dvd as well.

RIYL - Kristin Hersh solo stuff.

note:

also picked up the new viva voce and James - whiplash (aka the last good James album).
