Charlie Mayer Scott Cortez. Need I say anymore? When the musical genius behind Astrobrite, Lovesliescrushing, STAR, and other projects puts out a polished LP, you can bet your butt it's going to be a 10. And that's exactly what this is! Favorite track: Exploding Order.

This is what shoegaze has been missing. Just relentless, crushing, and yet soothing noise to get totally lost in. freyacantsleep

Melt

Stunning and tranquil dream pop backed by strong shoegaze-like instrumentation. The two greatest facets of this album are the floaty female vocals that ride along the forefront and the expansive melodicism of the guitars that create moments of intensity Everything is delivered with a crystalline clarity, never becoming too washed out in droning sounds. There are certainly efforts to balance the more spirited or slow-burn moments found throughout the record Lorenzo

Stereo Musicale Retrospective

Been listening to this album on an old worn out tape for decades so it's a luxury to be able to dive back in the full experience. While still fitting in with the shoegazer scene generally, BMJ managed to stand apart with slippery rollercoaster twists and turns (and of course the lead flute work). Boo Radley fans, particularly of the 1st couple official albums and live shows should give BMJ a listen. jasonk
