I'm so glad I got into Yo La Tengo bassist James McNew's side band DUMP. Its great lo-fi four track stuff that has much emotion and heart put into it. This is his third(and latest) full length. All of them are great but this one is my personal favorite. If you're a fan of YLT or appreciate the art of a good four track recording than please check his stuff out. Thank you.

i have this cd and one other dump cd. it is some of the most heart felt collections of songs i have ever heard. whenever i am in mixed or new company and have an opportunity to put on some background music... i don't hesitate!

Oh man. By recommendation of a local college radio station dj (Hi Drew!) I decided to buy this cd. It's a fine choice! Very relaxing. When you put this on it'll just put you to sleep. And that's a good thing :) The songs seem so simple and thrown together in 10 minutes, but at the same time, the whole album touches on a really deep level. An evening isn't complete without a big ol' quilt, a cup of warm milk, and some Dump on the stereo. Even the artwork, though sparse, is just so... comforting. I can stare at the two or three simple drawings and it just lets me know that nothing really matters when it comes down to it. Buy this album, dammit!
