Power Pop, Psychedelic Rock and Garage Rock categories. Influences include The Beatles, The Who, Big Star, Buffalo Springfield, The Yardbirds, The Smithereens, The Byrds, Jefferson Airplane, and others.

I heard the 1st track, Speed of Life, on Little Steven's Underground Garage, and think it's really good.
