ドリーミィな90’S宅録ローファイ・インディー・ポップ名作！
APPLES IN STEREOの中心人物ロバート・シュナイダーによる、ELEPHANT 6〜KINDERCORE勢好きならずとも必須科目と言える宅録インディー・ポップの金字塔。サイケデリック・ポップ影響下のキラキラとしたサウンド/アレンジが心地いい「TOP OF THE MORNIN」や「SWIMMING」といった立ち上がりから、ラララ＋パパパ・コーラスとハンド・クラップ弾ける「SUN TO SHINE」、小山田圭吾氏がコンパイルしたトラットリアV.A.『PREGO! ’97 VIEW-MASTER』でもセレクトされた「GO MARILEE」、ラストを締めくくる「GRANT ME THE DAY」まで全14曲、通してまどろんだ泣きメロが多幸感と共に広がっていく名作です。
