The cover art is creepy. Don't let that scare you. The music is a less-than-subtle amalgam of Spectorian craft, oblique strategy, opiated reverb, and saccharine-sweet sensibilities. Don't let that scare you, either. This a pop record, in spite of itself. There are gentle songs, jarring songs, songs that are scarely songs at all. Seven songs retrofitted and bisected into siamese sisers by Xiu Xiu's Jamie Stewart and the Dead Science's Jherek Bischoff.
