The glass bottom boat of the cultural press
I’m not into this at all. The music is okay in a wispy indie/emo pop sort of way, but the vocal style kills it for me. Female vocals that just don’t draw me in. There are some tracks that had me at least listening a little closer, but for the most part I’m pretty uninterested in this. Good lyrics, though. Maybe I’ll get used to the vocals eventually, but I doubt it. Shute Recordings, P.O. Box 2291, Kensington, MD 20891; milkbar.mit.edu/shute/shute.html
