down to business in the mines of emotion. Tight and incredible. A gem of a intuitive version with lots of rootsy charisma and swingin' euphoria..

sprawling, effervescent, columnar. The blend of all the icy bralove tone makes for a devastating effect especially when the devils file the paperwork and everything is on schedule and really locked in fundamentally. The sparks coming off it with enough imagination in the tank for lulls and surges of frequency from all, especially rosebud at the stern.
