Limited Edition of 500 copies on Sea Green Vinyl... Heatmiser's Cop and Speeder takes a few steps away from the hooky orientation of both it's Yellow No. 5 EP and 1993's Dead Air - the dark and only vaguely indie rock constructions it explores has the blues- and soul-based edge of it's peers like AFGHAN WHIGS, lending a sense of depth and sophistication to the record that's occasionally preferable to the punchier, angrier sound of it's first two Frontier Records releases. Co-songwriter and guitar player Neil Gust's knack for anthemic choruses infused with coiled passion makes the FUGAZI comparison particularly appropriate. Elliott Smith called Cop and Speeder his favorite Heatmiser album.
