After gaining much exposure with Bionic and the Toronto based band Bodega, Sam Goldberg went off and started his own project. With the album already in the works, he asked singer/songwriter Samantha Terry to join in on a record that could not have existed without her. The two are like the fox and the rabbit. Although the album begins as though they are harmonious, contrasting subjects and roles become more evident as the album progresses. It unfolds in a gradual sequence of instances, swaddling you in gauzy melodies, cocoons you in warmth then unravels you into a lion's den and moves you with flesh-grabbing lyrics. This band is unique. Their songs about love, adventure, heartbreak and disenchanted sex tend to intertwine as naturally as the situations do in real life.
