This U.S. debut album from the Danish quintet featuring Rex Garfield (female) as the singer/songwriter who is very comparable to Bjork. One special aspect of this group is the solid duets intertwined throughout the 13 songs. Some ways to describe this lo-fi, esoteric rock band are daunting, emotional, dreamy, melodica, and subtle. Some of the tracks that deserve attention are 3 "Reverse," 8 "Unpredictable, Illogical," and the trancy 9 "No Further Notice." -Jake Burritt Note: Track 2 "Slow Down" is only 1 minute long and a lot of the other tracks are barely 2 minutes
