Stately and creepy and droney and lonely with impressive abandoned-cabin production. File only next to records that display powerful self-confidence.

Cherry Head, Cherry Heart have been chased out of more towns than you've had baked beans. With wily words and sandy soundscapes they are constantly moving. From initial pop stylings through Tijuana-tinted tales of tangled twosomes and at present in preparation for something altogether different yet tantalisingly familiar they are always ready to be tarred and feathered again in their quest to not be what you'd expect.
