Homeless House
Genre: Children of Stipe & Buck

Poison Town
A band from the same area as The Windbreakers and the the same wheelhouse as REM it’s mind boggling that, at that era, something like this wouldn’t break through.
Alas, all the elements are here. The melodies, the musicianship, the jangle, the frilly bass, even the vocals are warm and inviting.
In 20 years I will fall in love with a band called Nightmare of You and they are the heirs to this record.
