I wasn't as taken with the last Sylvie Lewis record as others were here, so I haven't picked that up. The Pillbugs new release is Buzz For Aldrin -- it's another double disc set, and it has their usual amount of psych-pop brilliance, but they also stretch out on some songs, and The Move's influence on them looms as large as ever (and that's a good thing, IMO).
