Mostly fingerpicked acoustic with some drums here or there and some noise here or there and some weird and awesome ambient/electronic sounds here or there. It's David Grubbs (of Squirrel Bait and Bastro; trust me, this doesn't sound anything like those bands!) and Jim O'Rourke doing, in my mind, their best work.

A very quiet, minimal, subdued, lonely recording. Reminds me of John Fahey if he decided to drink robotussin instead of alcohol. Appropriately, it ends with a great rendition of a Fahey tune.

Also, if this means anything to anyone, it's Otomo Yoshihide's favorite record of all time or one of 'em at least.
