Their first album, produced by Flo and Eddie, has bad sound, sloppy playing and little character, despite the rave-up playing and general enthusiasm. On the other hand, Relics — released four years after being recorded on a 4-track by Craig Leon — has the intensity and cutting sonic attack to effectively re-create the weird sounds of Mann's idols. ..."
