"I bought this cd haphazardly at Kim's Underground in NYC about 12 years ago at the recommendation of one of the employees, and it has been one of my all-time faves ever since. Chan's voice may not be the most attractive, but it and her music convey an unconventionally sad and beautiful melodic portrait with raw intensity in this melancholic, and oftentimes emotionally fueled album. My favorite tracks? Well, "Bathysphere" is an angrily obvious ode to adolescent angst and delivers with satisfying intensity; "King Rides By" is one of the most gorgeously humble and tragic love songs ever produced. I highly recommend this album if you dig that sort of thing."
