Album Notes
The Inbreds: Mike O'Neill (vocals, bass); Dave Ullrich (drums).Personnel: Mike O'Neill (vocals, guitar, cello, piano, drums, tambourine, background vocals); Dale Morningstar (trumpet, vibraslap); Lewis Melville (French horn, background vocals); Dave Ullrich (trombone, xylophone, drums, tambourine, percussion, background vocals); Dave Clark (tuba, piano, drums, tambourine, triangle, percussion, background vocals).Photographers: Dave Ullrich; Mike O'Neill.Unknown Contributor Role: Mike O'Neill.Arranger: Dave Clark .Kombinator starts with a typically Canadian approach to mellow, melodic, mid-tempo pop, adds a nicely stratchy recording technique and few twangy, rustic touches, and then runs through some appealingly written songs -- the result is entirely pleasant, achieving a clear, friendly, and unironic tone that can be greatly appreciated. It's not the sort of album that will be flying off of record store shelves and getting listeners' attention, but it accomplishes its goals solidly enough to deserve a good deal of credit. ~ Nitsuh Abebe

Editorial Reviews
Two Canadians with a bass guitar and drums....fuzzed-out bass chords, a fine line in vocal harmonies, and a penchant for early R.E.M. and Violent Femmes country stomping...
Melody Maker (19960210)

...A damn near infallible pop aesthetic makes these catchy tunes ring like the Everly Brothers got a fuzz pedal...
