Loftus was an American indie rock band from Chicago, signed to Perishable Records.
CMJ New Music Monthly described the album as "quietly noisy deconstructed country and blues grooves".
[3] The album was a modest financial success for the label, which led to their issuing side projects from several of Loftus's members.
[4] The group did not issue any further material under this name, but the album saw a vinyl reissue on Jealous Butcher Records in 2013.
[5] The original CD issue on Perishable and the vinyl reissue on Jealous Butcher were both encased in sandpaper sleeves, which were meant to abrade and damage the covers of the records they sit next to on a shelf.
