The classic Sickos meme. Comic of a bestubbled man with menacing eyebrows outside a window, wearing a black shirt with the word "SICKOS" on it in white print, with hands on the glass, peering in and commenting "YES ... HA HA HA... YES!".

Shoegaze? More like she crazy.
If feedback and melody had a secret tryst, this album is the result.
