Is this new? I really liked "Coming Back" and "Second To None" off the other one.

Yep - just came out in February. You can hear three of the tracks on the link to the YouTube channel

Thanks to everyone who pm'd - all albums were mailed yesterday and should be in your hands in a couple days. There's a sticker enclosed with each vinyl which is also a download card, but sometimes downloading FLAC versions on those stickers has been problematic. I would suggest just grabbing the 320 mp3s. Enjoy!

Got the LP in the mail today. Love the colors! I'll give it a listen this weekend. Thanks SK!

Thanks for the compliment on the artwork! Would sincerely love any feedback, positive or negative.

Yeah, the artwork is very 4AD.
Looks great!
And the music is outstanding, too. Y'all should be proud!

Powerful voice, tonally classic choices in the studio. Need to sit with the lp and liner notes now.

Packaging is great. It doesn't look or feel budget.

I don't know about it being the long lost Empire Records soundtrack. While the teenager in me loved that movie and soundtrack, I think the spirit of the performances and recording sounds more like say Shoes than The Gin Blossoms (who are on the soundtrack) I can get where that comment comes from since it's kind of reminiscent of Matthew Sweet who wasn't on the soundtrack but would have fit in next to Toad, The Cranberries, Innocence Mission, etc...

More muscular than most female fronted rock, without being silly like Veruca Salt.

Wow, thanks so much Phil. Yeah, I dunno about Empire Records either, and I do like your Shoes comparison. Thanks for the remarks on packaging. That vibe is really what we're going for.

TBH, the reviewer made enough mistakes (calling our drummer/producer Chris instead of Chuck, referencing a duet that doesn't exist on a certain track) to lead me to believe that they listened to this not very much, liked it enough, and banged out a review in pretty short order that wasn't entirely accurate. I'm picking up on the notion that this happens quite a bit.

Awwww thank you Toddy! I never thought about it, but you are right about 4AD. Something about the shape of the artwork does remind me a bit of Breeders and that set.
