Sleepytime Trio

Memory-Minus

Lovitt

Densely jagged yet melodic guitars find their way through ever-changing structures, accompanied by mostly screamy/yelled vocals. Contrasts abound within songs, from quiet to loud, mellow to driving, and flow naturally. Great, intelligently edgy songs.

This is a discography of all their vinyl stuff plus some live songs. They are no more, but some members are active in Engine Down. Something to close the book and something to look forward to. Lovitt Records, P.O. Box 248, Arlington, VA 22210-9998
