Review excerpt:
'The ten-song album runs the gamut from the opening instrumental guitar freakout of “Sleep-Stealer” to the closing a cappella “Acapella (aka To White Tara),” complete with a bit of beat-boxing. Our personal faves? The shimmering, reverb-drenched “Ring These Bells” and the Chris Whitley-like neo-blues of “Sunshine Army.” '
