 Tidal folk-rock. Defiantly lo-fi, this debut is a beautifully realised blend of tempestuous guitars and choppy drumbeats, with one track, Do It All Again, simmering moog-ily along like Electrelane covering Sonic Youth. Johanna's violin mewls keenly throughout, thankfully steering well clear of fetid folk. If it wasn't for the occasional mention of terraced housing and the pronunciation of laaaaaugh, this collection could comfortably slot in among other Americana moochers like Sebadoh. Singer Dan Eastop might well be singing about snails and salt - I don't know and I certainly don't care because all I hear is music, stitched together with unfulfilled lust in postered bedrooms on sticky summer nights. Quite marvellous. (8/10) Kim Taylor Bennett 05 March 04 useful link: www.seachangemusic.com  conversations
