Review[]

I once saw a review for this album that said it was the best album Sub Pop ever released. I'm not sure if I'd go quite that far (though I'm hard pressed to think of a better one—maybe New Mansions In Sound...), but it is completely outstanding and one of the stand-out Fastbacks records. This is a bit in the power-pop vein, as the Fastbacks would do occasionally. "Gone To The Moon", the single, was a perfect slice of pop-rock perfection, though. This album is actually out of print, but, in Seattle at least, I see new copies around occasionally, and used ones aren't too awfully hard to come by. - Rev. Syung Myung Me
