It's not bad. Sounds a little dated, but it was well worth the $0.50 I paid for it.

All Music isn't known for their keen insight. It's pretty much on a par with Pigeonhole.
did you like Beauty Pill?

$0.50

you thrifty bastard, I paid $1.

allmusic normally gets the stars right for an individul band though. It normally sorts the wheat from the chaff. Although I am still bitter about Sandinistas 2 stars.

Mixed feelings.

I like it when the guy sings. I'm not big on the chick's voice.

It's an EP and it's all of 15 minutes. The intro is kind of gay artsy-fartsy. The first full song is pretty rocking though. The rest is so-so.

It doesn't measure up to Cigarette Girl From the Future – the song. If you like the first album, you'll like the new EP.

I have not heard the first EP but like the new one, and like the male singers voice, one of the main reasons I like Smart Went Crazy. I like the last song on the new ep a lot.

Thirsty, I think you're just trying to kick up some dust on these here boards!! Is it possible that Wilco can be debated yet again? I think it's all been said.

Not familiar with them.

But Johnny Marr And The Healers are on my :D Did you know that The Healers part of their name was taken from Madame Blavatsky's books. (I have them and can't remember what they are called.)

another shoe-gazer band, but with kraut rock influence. I picked a several odd shoe gazer things from game exchange….. including every curve CD single and a load of cocteau twins singles.
