"...concentrates on a wiry, guitar-driven sound that invites favorable
comparison to Television and the Velvet Underground. Combining an aggressive

At the word go, guitartists Rick Rizzo and Baird Figi spill their case
of primary-colored leads, drummer Janet Beveridge Bean's pretty harmonies
hug Rizzo's spittle-cured vocals, and bassist Doug McCombs grips the beat...The

so good, they're still real loud (which is good in my book just the same)."
