Hurl were a crazily overlooked band in their day and continue to be so.  I'm sorta guessing at this release date as I can't seem to find documentation anywhere online as to when this actually was released.   The title track is a mathy post-rock gem, the sort of song that had me listening to this band through a lot of college.  The flip side "Dual Showman" is decent but sorta devolves into noise at the end (something that can be seen as good or bad depending on your particular tastes).  This is a good slab.  As a bonus, the sleeve is silk-screened and it looks awesome.
