MORE SAD HITS was the first release by Damon Krukowski and Naomi Yang after the demise of their band Galaxie 500. Though subtler, it has a similar bearing to the former outfit. Mark Kramer, who produced all the Galaxie 500 albums, is also on board for this one, functioning as a veritable third member and playing an assortment of instruments. Mellotron-laced tapestries and tape loops embellish the tranquil music with mystical, almost psychedelic filigree. The songs have a melancholy that's tied to their lyrical content as well as the aural landscape in which they exist, and a poetic resonance, with "This Car Climbed Mt. Washington" evoking emotional responses that are palpable, if hard to pin down. The set's two covers include a beautiful version of "Memories" by Hugh Hopper, known largely for his work with Soft Machine in the '60s and '70s.
