642. Heatmiser - mic city sons

I got this album because back in the day, before the internet, you didn't always discover an artist before they had a record deal... often they already had been playing for a while... so as I began to devour all that Elliot Smith was involved in after I heard "Either/Or" I worked my way back to Heatmiser his first band. This record feels like two seperate bands going at it in a duel, one band fronted by Elliot Smith and the other by Neil Gust... it was clear that Heatmiser was too small for Elliot.
