It’s pretty good, although it’s the much smoother, slicker sound of later Roxy rather than the art school early years, although at times they sound like a more jazz Pink Floyd.

Joanna Newsom is an artist who is a hair’s breadth away from my heart. Milk-Eyed Mender is a startling discovery to make when you’re 15

Young Men Dead followed The Thin Kids. Their stage presence is a little awkward, but that is probably due to the lack of a giant cockroach gyrating through the stage.

If you’re familiar with Ball Park Music, tune out for a bit. If you’re not, well, Sam Cromack makes jangly, slightly off-kilter, overly self-concious and highly infectious pop tunes with his band mates in BPM.
