The third installment in the continuing musical evolution of the Grip Weeds. With 13 originals and one cover of (“Melancholia” by Pete Townshend), “their third album invokes vintage recordings by the Move or the Who, pitched at the mythical moment where pure pop struggled with the onset of rock, a self-styled “serious” music about to break the three-minute barrier... the title track is the kind of slow-burning, snake-charming, psychedelic vamp nobody writes anymore, and maybe never did.” -London Sunday Times “Summer of a Thousand Years is one of the best albums you’ll hear this year, from one of the most capable and dedicated bands you’ll hear in your lifetime.” -Amplifier
Includes "Is It Showing" as heard on Q104.3's "Out of the Box" show with Jonathan Clarke- best of 2002!
