I remember catching you guys live and enjoying it. To me the recording doesn't really do you justice. I do think the addition of some simple backing guitar to flesh out the changes and hold everything down would add to the recorded sound, but may not be required live. No fucking wahwah pedals though.
I wouldn't be concerned with this chat about Oxbow, its not like they invented that, and you clearly enjoy, so why not.
Go get em, tiger.
