Reviews
AllMusic Review by Denise Sullivan
A gentle collection of songs with the distinctly Athens rural beat, in the mold cast by the B-52's and Pylon, and somehow related to surf music. Love Tractor augment their previously all-instrumental agenda with some obscured, tentative vocals. An acquired taste, to be sure.
