Beneath the wacky guitar fooling and somewhat nasal vocals, Built to Spill write great love songs, whether its bouncy pop or fragile melodies. Strings are used to good effect on three songs, and vocal harmonies make this disc an all-around winner. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
Years ago, when I moved to Seattle, my friend played this album for me. It was so different from what I was used to, that it took some time to love. But, it was worth the time it took.
"Wanna see it, when you get stoned on a cloudy, breezy, desert afternoon." One of the best lines to sing along with ever. Great album by one of the most underrated bands of the last 20 years. Distopian Dream Girl, Stab and Car are all classics. This album, along with Perfect From Now On and Keep it Like a Secret are worth buying.
