"After the high times and critical-mass arrangements of the previous two records Snowbug exuded a breezy spare morning-after vibe. Edified by all manner of world-folk classic Brazilian pop and the first volumes of the Ethiopiques comp the Llamas recorded in London with Fulton Dingley and in Chicago with Bundy K. Brown and Jim O""Rourke engineering at Electrical Audio and John McEntire mixing at Soma. Snowbug is an understated underrated gem."
