Frontman Jesse Thorson and longtime collaborators Dave Strait and Johnny C recruited the help of drummer Mikey Erg and guest bass appearance by Dillinger Four's Paddy Costello to create the foundation for this monumental recording. If that does not sound like enough, they also enlisted The Soviette's Annie Sparrows, Dear Landlord's Zack Gontard and members of Pretty Boy Thorson & The Falling Angel's to put the sparkling touches on this killer record full of rowdy, gruff, 90's nostalgic pop punk. Simply amazing!
