 Long considered the younger cousins of Stereolab, the Broadcast from Birmingham, led by Trish Keenan ("front woman" of the group) and Tim Felton (guitarist and the musical brain behind the project), with this album, distance themselves significantly from the comparison that had strongly pigeonholed them in their early days.
