Press Reviews Splendid E-zine__"...Songwriter/vocalist/guitarist Leslie Dean is a creative dynamo, favoring unpredictable minor-key melodies and post-goth psychedelic sprawl over standard pop song progression...Dean's passionately quirky vocal delivery hints not only a t the mid-eighties 4AD stable...__________________________________________________________ "Delusions of Adequacy__"'Over the Sink' comes on, slower, with a darkly melodic guitar line and Dean's vocals thickly textured...'Buttonholes' is even softer, very sparse and entirely driven by Dean's voice...Like its name, 'Anesthesia' is quiet and thick, with Dean's vocals layered and chilling. This track is quite lovely, with stellar bass and perfect guitar. 'Dog Eyes' is another darkly melodic track, with ni ce acoustic guitar...the moody, darkly melodic and hauntingly lovely tracks are truly inspired and quite impressive..."________________________________________________ BAM Magazine___"During their show at Blake's...Dean's edgy, haunting voice preternaturally drew out her apocryphal, defiant lyrics...her guitar rocks--her rhythm and lines are unusual and imaginative.""
