'Tender' voice like Yoshimi & the Robots, 'trembling' guitar ... It's not grabbing me by the balls.
If I had to put an influence to the sound I would say My Bloody Valentine, certainly not the Flaming Lips. Yikes.

Originally posted by Bosse de NageSomething like that. 😉 To be honest, I was never big on MBV. Loveless could never keep me hanging for the whole duration. I much prefer Cox's vocals and the sound of Archuleta's reverb-drenched guitar.
