Amazing twee-pop band from Oxford on Sarah Records. This is their second 7” just before the “Heavenly vs Satan” LP on Sarah/K Records. Amelia Fletcher was a sort of female Calvin Johnson. She had 3 different bands, she wrote almost every songs, she was very talented. Not a suprise if Heavenly was the only non american band, to release 3 albums on K Records in the 90’s.
