    Wow! Have you heard the news, oh boy! I think maybe Jason finally allowed himself to listen to a Beatles record or two! Regardless if the title track sounds like one of this century's most ground-breaking bands, this little EP features probably the best produced Starflyer song ever. Oh my gosh! I need to go back and listen to The Fashion Focus! How could I have let that album pass me by? The Fashion Focus is incredible! No wonder the label released this EP single (5 tracks in all). Jason Martin and co. have taken their shoegazer soft pop to the ultimate heights. His vocals are so soft and dreamy that it makes you think you're dreaming in the clouds. Feedback has met pop, and the marriage is as sweet as apple pie.
