"No I did not sneeze. This is quite the obscure album. Not many have heard of this band thus making this a true hidden gem. I am not really sure how I should classify this but I'll go along the lines of indie pop. For me it definetely has a similar feeling to The Microphones - The Glow Pt 2, but it does venture of into a much dreamier direction. The lyrics can be confusing at times but a taste of pain certainly does not go unnoticed. There are very weird tunes on this but they all fit together well. Sometimes while listening to it, I get the impression that it will eventually give me a massive headache, but it always ends up soothing me. Also, I do know they are from Canada and they have a Canadian folkish feeling to them. A great buy, even if you don't think so at first, I am sure a few listens in and you will come to the same conclusions."
