Play on hypersongs

Just Nelson and Brown, with a twelve-string guitar, tape loops and a wall of vintage keyboards, recorded by Rob Christiansen in a Richmond hall. Trouser Press heard frequency oscillations that seem to shift as you move around within them, and Textura argued it made the band a forerunner of the post-rock to come. It opens with Listening in Depth.
