The debut EP from the heartland rock sextet from Philly, this small record consists of three contemporary songs and three ambient interludes. The interludes are nice, if inessential, but they don't do much worth talking about. As for the other three songs, "Arms Like Boulders" is still the best thing they've done pre-Lost In The Dream, and "Buenos Aires Beach" is still good. The only non-interlude song you won't find anywhere else is "Pushing Corn", which would have fit very nicely on Wagonwheel Blues had it made the cut. In short, this EP is the perfect sampler for those interested in The War On Drugs.
