Listener Reviews & Comments As the story goes, Pete Lush happened upon an 8-track and decided to translate his anomalous thoughts into a somewhat palatable musical format. What was born from such a peculiar thought process was a record that is heavily weighted down by mood, deepened emotions and delicate acoustical arrangements compressed with random sounds. As genuine as the music is, it does tend to be on the sullen side with rare moments of anything resembling an upbeat moment. Vocally, Pete utilized his breathless, super luxuriant vocals that switch back and forth from the conversational to the sublime. This one had rainy day soundtrack written all over it but may be best listened to when you are in the mood for introspective thought. It also won't be one for high volume either but it's vibe is open for interpretation. Think of it as an extension of ones creative ability to transfuse their eclectic thoughts into music that seems abstract on the surface but doesn't confuse the listener.
