Should have gotten Best New Music! 8.0 is still great though. Congrats! This album deserves every drop of recognition it is bound to get.

The fact that Pitchfork didn't piss all over it should be considered an encouraging sign! An 8.0 from them is worth more by almost any other review standard (they're pretty harsh a lot of the time, deservedly or otherwise).

Deepak Bhathal

Deepak Bhathal Hey there. It was awhile back but what happened to that house show after CMW? The address didn't exist and we found ourselves surrounded by factories. On the plus side we found a gritty, grizzled burger joint where the cook told us of his wife of 32 years who he left in Ukraine 31 years ago. Apparently he has enjoyed everyday since.
