Worm Into Phoenix
Editorial Reviews
Album Description
Often compared to everyone from The Soft Boys, to XTC, to popier Pere Ubu stuff, to Wire (maybe...if they only ever released one single with "Outdoor Miner" b/w "Map Ref..."). Smart pop with no pretense, great lyrics with a slightly absurdist leaning (see Soft Boys reference), and a live show that will bring you to your knees. The Slow Jets are masters of melody and harmony - showing you their ability to craft a complex hook, then break into a jangly instrumental part that's equally complex and just as stirring. Ex-members of Roads to Space Travel (DeSoto Records, Amish Records), and Land Speed Record (Resin Records).

Best Pop Rock heard in years!.......2000-11-06
These guys do more in the span of two minutes than most bands do in a decade. Incredibly catchy tunes will have you humming them in your sleep. Definately worth checking out.
