TagYerit's Heavy Construction is a haven from the world's madness - right in your stereo. Since 1996, this CD has developed fans across six continents with heaps of glowing reviews.
Editor Richard Johnston of Guitar Player Magazine put Heavy Construction on his Picks List for 96, saying, "This one's full of the pure joy of words and music."
ROCKRGRL Dec 96, "Their quirky, unusual tunes are a treat. ... a great sense of humor as well as the ability to put a song across. And how many guitarists do you know who spend two years carving their guitar into the shape of a rabbit?"
JIMMY'S RIDDLE Feb. 97 "... a band that wilfully subvert the pop-rock formula ...... this disc is outstanding. If you're prepared to take a chance, you will not be disappointed. "
Eric Hultgren 181.4 Degrees from the Norm! "the music is even cooler in songs like "Buried Treasure," "Adam & Eve," or the most excellent acapella tune, "Pointless Psychic Revelation." The fly in the ointment here is ...when you find out how beautiful Flo's voice is, you want her to sing the entire time. ... an impressive release ...worthy of a few hundred spins ...I warn you, though, it's like flying a bike: it takes some getting used to but once you figure it out you fall in love. Thanks E.T."

Thanks for taking the time share your feelings about TagYerit's music. Without you, our fans, TagYerit would just be 2 people at home staring out into cyberspace. Come to think of it maybe that's not too much of a stretch.

Paul Doyle - Vermont Review 10/98 Wow. This is some wild stuff. This music comes from just beyond Planet Claire. ... Musically, there is lots of neat stuff going on, usually from various guitars and the layered vocals of Flo. ... Pointless Psychic Revelation (garbage in, garbage out) shows how sophisticated they actually are despite the comedic element. This music is out there for those of you who are too.

Here's a response we got about a month ago... DAMN, you guys are good! I went to the post office, popped your CD in the player and bounced through the first 4 tracks before coming home ... I like it that much. funfunfunfun. Bands like you make me really happy someone is carrying the torch of silly brainy rock. Bunny guitar and everything. Hy husband Tim is going to want this, but he'll have to pry it from my cold dead fingers or buy his own. OK, I'll stop gushing now. This fan letter business is kind of out of character for me. -Susan Court "Ectophilic" pop from Seattle: Susan Court susan@fundeling.com http://www.fundeling.com
