“Wow, this is easily the most beautiful packaging for a CD that I own! Even a blind person could enjoy this, since it feels good to touch too. A fuzzy cover, and then tassels on the sides as well? The only problem is that the entire cover comes off when you open the case, so you have to be really careful not to break it! The recording sounds good too, it’s a bit lo fi, but that’d be because it’s live. Live in Athens OH, Winter of 2005, except for one track that was recorded in Miami. This is a reissue of a tape that was on Gameboy Records, a very fine label. The songs are very good, textures and waaahs and hums. Every now and then a bit of melody is allowed to blossom, but then dies, like a cherry blossom, or a samurai warrior who is inspired by cherry blossoms! Or like Leslie, strangling an old woman at a hot dog eating contest while in the midst of a blackout rage! Speaking of drinking, I ended up cadging (is that even a word? I think it is, but it doesn’t look right. Is it Brittish? God, I hope not!) a whole bunch of Leslie Keffer merch, so I better save some of my metaphors for those, since I promised I’d review them ALL! Anyways, you should totally get this if you can, but it’s an edition of 30 for the tour, so you probably can’t. Because surely the tour is over by now. You might as well just stick a sword in your gut like the aforementioned samurai.”
