    HANDWITHLEGS – The Electric Cave COZY HOME, RELEASES, TRANSATMOSPHERIC | Comments Off

    Fig Mints (of Your Imagination) – The Well Worn Road COZY HOME, FIG MINTS, VIDEOS | (4)
    A bored and drunk Bobby Rogan plays this timeless classic from his last record 'Exercises In Futility', and also good old Daydream Generation 1. Fig Mints have loads of good stuff on their site including a video for shiny new song 'What Happened To Holiday?' - go show some love to the little guy at: www.thefigmints.com (*never underestimate your own popularity, dig?)
