Now recording for an indie label, guitarist Wink O'Bannon quit before the recording of
Ursa Major, and Janet Bean was also consumed with her excellent side band
Freakwater, but this record was winner number three. A tad more experimental (and some would argue less accessible, though not me) than earlier records,
Ursa Major is still loaded with supple, pretty melodies and intense, rampaging guitars. ~ John Dougan
