THE COLLEGE CD, November 16, 1999
This review is from: I Become Small & Go (Audio CD)
I think there is a rule written somewhere that college students must listen to indie music. This is the CD that brought indie to my attention, and has been my favorite since. I have a strong love for BTS, Quazi, Pedro the Lion and all the others, but this has remained the best CD i have ever purchased. This has become the soundtrack to my life... I study, sleep, and drive to this band. It has proved to be optimal in every case. I played it so much that I had to burn myself a copy before the sound became too distorted! And it is impossible to tire of, only getting better every time. I cannot express the excellence of this CD! Buy it now and you will be forever changed! And yes, even a Seattle girl can listen to a Cali band.

Three-quarters of a breathtaking album., May 10, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: I Become Small & Go (Audio CD)
I play this CD quite a bit, and each time I am equally thrilled, yet puzzled, because the I Become Small And Go sounds likes a compliation between two different bands. One of those bands is woeful (see Prison Mix and Black Hole). However, the other band, the band I like to believe is the "real" Creeper Lagoon, has created some truly wonderful music. Examples of this excellence include Wonderful Love, Tracy, and Dear Deadly. In addition, while each of those tunes is terrific, Dreaming Again is even better, and positively haunting in its lushness. In sum, those four songs make the album a worthwhile purchase, even if they are merely a glimpse of what is possible rather than what has heretofore been realized, as a total packaged album, by Creeper Lagoon.

Phenomenal Production matched with Solid Song Writing, September 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: I Become Small & Go (Audio CD)
This album is a must have for any serious fan of indie/low-fi (although the production is anything but lo-fi; its a lo-fi aesthetic with top notch layered production). Do you like the synergies of Sebadoh? Similar song-writing duo here; one faces the pensive and introspective, the other covers the pop. While most reviews (here at least) have focused on the lighter & catchier material, I find the pensive more impressive. Song #10 in particular is fantastic. Sebadoh + The Sea & Cake.
