I've only heard bits and pieces of this record, but this sounds really, really good....miles ahead of the first record, which sounded far too much like a MBV carbon copy. Anyone else heard it?

one of the best "indie" albums i've heard this year for sure. It's really good neo-shoegaze and a lot better than their debut.

I've liked the tracks I've heard. Didn't realize she had such a following. She will be playing at a local record store here in July, I should try and go.
