Description
Although it was released in 1990, nearly a decade after the duo of Chris Knox and Alec Bathgate first started recording as a duo following the implosion of their pioneering New Zealand new wave band, Toy Love, WEEVILLE was the first full-length Tall Dwarfs album. After nine years' worth of EPs and singles (some collected on the 1987 anthology HELLO CRUEL WORLD), the 16-track WEEVILLE sounds positively expansive, but Knox and Bathgate stick with their by-now-familiar lo-fi blend of experimental noise, quirky instrumentals, and twisted pop songs. Highlights include "Skin of My Teeth," the corrosive "Sign the Dotted Line," and the subversively poppy "Tip of My Tongue."
