Easily one of my (brian vernon) favorite albums of all time, Dora's only full length
combines indie rock with an ambient soundscape that only some young
dudes from Memphis could put together. Ben Canady's pained lyrics mix
with Brandon Kinder's infectious guitar melodies and create and album
that was well ahead of its time. The start of our golden years, this
album took the combined efforts of everone in the Smith7 Records family.
Recorded (& partially written) in Tolono, IL, Dead Horse Lounge was
funded by the label's entire budget/life savings. Engineered and mixed
by Matt Talbott (Hum, Centaur) and Mastered and mixed by Keith
Cleversley (Flaming Lips among others). Dora broke up in 2002. Members
of Dora are now in these bands: This
