Love Tara is the debut studio album by Canadian indie band Eric's Trip.
[1] The album was self-recorded in three months and reflected Sub Pop's shift toward lighter, more melodic music from the grunge on which it initially built its reputation.
Though the lo-fi quality of the record threw many listeners and critics off, it was still very well received in both Canada and the United States.
[2] Mike Bell of the Calgary Herald praised the album as "Simplistic, charming, front-porch folk-pop with melodies that stick like a gradeschool tongue to a flag pole or rock riffs that sound like a dysfunctional Partridge Family jamming in the garage.
[6] In a 2015 review, Vice's Matt Williams dubbed it "one of the best Canadian albums ever", seeing it stay "a high watermark" within the nation's music history.
