"Slow-core at its best. This is actually quite heavy, the distortion is loud and the lyrics tender. The lead singer sings on Wird: "I wanna walk/But I have to crawl", and I guess that sums up Codeine's music as well.

"2 Glasweigan brothers known for their feedback drenched albums and chaotic gigs get some cowboy hats and acoustic guitars and make a country album.

"While on 1998's TNT it seems like the drums are the instrument that everything is centered around and that we are focusing on the most, here on their debut it's all about the bass.
