Starlight Mints were a very underrated pop band - I saw them live a few times and they were always great.  Two catchy songs here, and if I remember correctly the title track had a great video featuring puppets - the cover is from that I believe.  They had an Elephant 6 sort of thing going on when it was popular from bands all over to sound like that Athens collective, but the Mints might have been even better at it than most of the originators.  On clear green vinyl.
