Plastic Crimewave croons like Bowie if he were truly in space while Tsuyama from Acid Mothers Temple adds creepy ambience in the background. On the B side, Steve gets hazey as the shoegazey goodness seeps off of the grooves and through the speakers. A solid deal and the first vinyl outing from local zine turned vinyl shiller Notes and Bolts!
