The Slow Crack finds Kilbey tapping into his warped pop sensibility and -- with an arsenal of guitars, synths, drum machine, and even some horns here and there -- creating perhaps the most upbeat record of his career. The hallucinatory lyrics and psychedelic feel remain, of course.

1. Transaction
2. Fireman
3. Woman with Reason
4. A Favourite Pack of Lies
5. Something That Means Something
6. Consider Yourself Conquered
