very good shoegaze record from San Fransisco (by way of NZ/NYC) outfit Tamaryn. i don't really even like 'gaze but this record is dope, reminds me alot of first gen stuff like MBV and The Pastels, with swirling/ethereal Cocteau Twins-style vocals and insistent basslines, especially on the opening and closing tracks. one of those albums that kind of floats by without being too ponderous, but that nevertheless leaves a lasting impression on you. more solid late night music for the end of the summer.
