'buffalo' is the latest album from kaleidoscopic pop group the phoenix foundation, whose last album 'happy ending' (originally released on the legendary flying nun label), had critics hailing them as new zealand's best kept secret. from intelligent and infectiously catchy pop / rock gems, to epic, psychedelic prog rock, 'buffalo' combines sun bleached harmonies, chiming guitars, progressive synth scapes and subliminal rhythms to glorious effect. on memphis industries.
