Recorded at Zippah Studio, Brookline, Massachusetts.

An interesting mix of jangly roots rock and country with '60s psychedelia; the dominant feel here is a sort of rueful melancholy. Front man Robert Fisher employs vaguely sepulchral, Nick Cave-ish vocals, and has a fondness for lyrics like "Everything's fallen to pieces, and nothing stays the same." Predominantly acoustic instrumentation adds to the gloom.

There's a hint of Fisher's noise-rock roots in the album's two prominent curveballs. "Go Jimmy Go," is a bracing piece of pop punk which juxtaposes Lou Reed-style solo lines with Ramones-like rhythm guitar, and the concluding "The Visitor" is a fuzz-drenched drone that sounds like the Velvet Underground with their amps turned to 11.
