"One of the most original and enjoyable releases in recent memory" (Windy City Times)
Welcome To Shimmerplanet is one of the most original and enjoyable releases in recent memory. The pair takes turns singing lead on the songs, and when they sing together, as they do on the exceptional "No Safe," they complement each other like two planets in the same orbit. The variety of the material, from the keyboard and vocal on "I Am Still Looking For You" to revved- up rock of "Everything's Perfect" to the deadpan vocals on "Happy" to the racing S&M heartbeat of "Beat Me" to humdinger "Envy," kept my attention from start to finish (including the "I Sleep With The Radio On" coda) and made me yearn for travel to Shimmerplanet's galaxy.
