Shimmering walls of distortion
Stryker Stereo | Albany CA. | 02/11/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)
"The electro group out of Sacramento CA. builds a huge sonic barrier so grand that it seems to be alive with an insane energy. Quite a bit like MBV's "isn't anything", the electro group take off where that album ends. Bustling, distorted bass-lines, frenzied drum attacks, fuzzed out HUGE guitars, soft underlying vocals. This is a great album that pays homage to the past heroes of true noise-pop. If you enjoy MBV, Dinosaur Jr., swervedriver, and hum, you will most undoubtedly enjoy the electro group's "a new pacifica"."
Shoegazing lives

"For those that pine for the early 90's shoegazing sound, this is the album for you. "Line of Sight" and "Manimal" rank up there with anything in the MBV catalogue. Give it a whirl."
