about

third Graverobbers album. Mostly rock and roll, with a little country here and there. Includes "Tonight," many people's favorite Karl song, often played by other people.
Karl sees this album as a combination of the rock and roll and dreamy/impressionistic sides of the band, and as a result the best work of the "classic" early Graverobbers lineup. Vigilant fans will notice that no two albums actually had the same lineup.
