CARETAKER
Pause EP
Reviewed by Jason Thornberry

---

Lo-fi, and suitably jangly, is Petersfield, UK's Caretaker. Things have happened fairly rapidly since their inception in December 1998, and this EP has already been played by all three 'happening' Radio One (BBC) DJs: Steve Lamacq, John Peel and Mary Anne Hobbs. This is limited to 365, so contact Badmusic's site, if subtle, dreamy pop is up your alley, and place your order with haste. The sleeve boasts four songs, and there's a short bonus track tacked at the tail end. I'll give it three stars out of five. Stand-out song: Safe as Houses. (www.badmusic.net)
