Leave That Hole Alone

A great name from the Great Plains, these kindhearted Kansas folk drop a puzzling a-side that’s perfect with ambiguity (are they talking about nose picking or giving Eric Erlandson’s advice on Courtney Love’s new band?) Lou Reed “Heard Her Call My Name”-esque blistering guitar solo and references to Michael J. Fox. Good luck describing it any better. The flip moves along with massive, sweeping effect that indicates something bigger and is contrasted with spare, minimalist verses extolling the virtues of insect love. These guys are keeping Lawrence weird.
