Entirely written by chief Brian Jonestown Massacre-ist Anton Newcombe in collaboration with co-vocalist Sarabeth Tuceck, this five-song EP is a somewhat uncharacteristically gentle BJM effort. The astral jangly feel of several tracks, particularly "Never Become Emotionally Attached to Man, Woman, Beast or Child," brings to mind a rather narcotized Byrds. It's psychedelic folk-rock that's content to drift along with a cosmic sheen, not so much determined to make an explosive breakthrough to the fifth dimension as to hover there. "Teleflows vs. Amplifaction" borders on electronic ambient music, but most of the material has a guitar base, albeit often with (as on "God Is My Girlfriend") the kind of spaced-out electronic effects that were beyond the technological reach of the Byrds back in the 1960s. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide

We Are the Radio: Mini Album Notes
Named in tribute to the legendary Rolling Stones guitarist and his influence in introducing Eastern culture into the world of Western rock and roll, The Brian Jonestown Massacre have made some of the most exciting underground music in America since the sixties. Formed in 1990 in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco, The Brian Jonestown Massacre is very much an amalgamation of that city’s past and present musical forces.
Some 40 different members have passed through the group's ranks since it’s inception, but the heart of the BJM is the ragged determinism of Anton Newcombe — producer, songwriter, guitarist, singer and the group's primary creative force. Featuring 5 new songs from the critically-acclaimed BJM, “We Are the Radio” will surely please fans and critics alike...
