Space Weirdo: Press Start

Space Weirdo: Press Start

My first encounter with Space Weirdo was back in 2009 when *Cosmonaut* was released on Jamendo. I was thoroughly engaged with album, and wrote a positive review in January 2010.

Well, with the release of *Press Start* both of those criticisms have been addressed, and then some. Read on for a complete review.
