She's potent and has a voice of real elegance, and sonic firepower..." - Backseat Mafia "This Tel Aviv guitarist's solo debut album is a promising blend of haunting, blues-tinged psych-rock, jazzy prog and moody postpunk, combining her adventurous guitar work with intricate rhythms and coollydetached vocals." - KEXP Available from Exag Records to EUROPE excl.France, Switzerland, Spain and Portugal via Cargo Germany, to UK/US via Kill Rock Stars Last copies of first EU pressing (orange vinyl)
