Anything that sounds like a new take on any number of those excellent Postcard Records based post-punk bands that have fallen down the cracks of history to some degree, such as Josef K and Orange Juice, is fine with me.

Tabitha is a great song and one that already feels like a long-lost part of an alternative timeline. It is not dated or out of touch, just, well, other and elsewhere, as if it has come to us through a wormhole from 1980. I love it, more so that it appears in demo form. I’d say leave it the way it is. Overproduce this, and you’ll lose some of the DIY magic.

The sound of my youth could be the sound of your future. Or something.
