So what you really meant to ask was, "Talk me INTO Mirror/Dash?"
I like free kitten but I grew up on riot grrl.. I really liked this record and 1997 was probably the pinnacle of the Kill Rock Stars era..

I don't believe there's much Mirror/Dash to explore (this was just Thurston/Kim as a duo) beyond the 7". Maybe some live recordings but I'm not sure if any circulate. Kim repurposed the title for a fashion line recently.
As for Free Kitten, the early EPs are just Kim/Julie as a duo and some people probably swear by those recordings but for me, Nice Ass and Sentimental Education are fantastic albums (the latter being the stronger of the two, in my opinion). It doesn't sound that different from Kim's contributions to SY in the early 90s, but Julie adds her voice/style. Really worth checking out. The "reunion" album was closer in tone to the early EPs, less formed than the two albums I mentioned, which are all structured songs.

You totally forgot that experimental noise "album" I Can't Be Bought Also, they put out a lot of really limited release DIY type things but you're right, for all intents and purposes there is just that 7" accessible (I think it was reissued??).. http://www.discogs.com/artist/159818-MirrorDash Quote:

I have Mirror/Dash gig (pro-shot) from Art Rock festival 2005, where they play with some movie screening behind them, pretty good stuff.

I was present at the recording of I Can't Be Bought, Dream Aktion Unit also played and the results were recorded and released as Blood Shadow Rampage on the Volcanic Tongue Label. Fantastic and surreal evening in Stirling, I got my Electric Pen 7" signed by both Kim and Thurston.
