Slender

Time On Earth Slender

SO MUCH to sink into on this debut long haul with the elusive NYC skirmishers. Lean, concise, often

juxtaposed songs and interludes are deftly thatched together to make up the majority of Side A, with

dense, drowning-world electronics on tracks like "Heavy Weather" clearing the skies for jovial anthems

like "New Country" (which for us totally rings the same joyous bells as Yuzo Iwata's "Gigolo"!!) and the

grittier, barnacled basement etherea of "Sleep The Trees".
