Description
The Detroit brother and sister duo provide raw bluesy rock for their second album. Most of the songs are deliberately simple, containing elements of The Stooges, MC5 and The Kinks. Blues-tinged garage rock scaled down to its most essential elements, a guitar, drum kit and sneering vocals. Includes the singles 'Fell In Love With A Girl', 'Hotel Yorba' and 'Dead Leaves On The Dirty Ground'.

Rolling Stone (7/19/01, p.50)
- 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...Gothic garage punk strictly by the all the best and baddest rules....fusing inescapable, eerily eternal melodies with dirty-ass, brain-scrambling riffs recalling both the Kinks and the Melvins..."
Spin (1/03, p.70)
- Ranked #1 on Spin's list of 2002's "Albums of the Year" - "...A jittery, lovably pretentious garage blues record....Unexpected rock stars who love Howlin' Wolf and peppermint candy in equal amounts..."
Q (9/01, p.122)
- 4 stars out of 5 - "...Their sonic ingenuity...enhances even the most basic garage-rock templates....curiously innocent..."
Mojo (9/01, p.93)

NME (7/7/01, p.34)
- 8 out of 10 - "...Great songs, a great look and self-discipline, too..."
Uncut (9/01, p.100)
- 4 stars out of 5 - "...The most explosively entertaining new band to come out of America in recent memory..."
CMJ (7/2/01, p.4)
- "...Irresitible....It's as if they take Beatlesque hooks and a snotty Stones rock 'tude, mashes them with the eardrum-bursting chugs of Sabbath, and then washes it all in a decidedly millenial indie-rock mood..."
