Though Home was originally regarded as a obscurantists like Pavement , Home is both more ambitious and more consistently tuneful than many of its trendier peers." Less charitably, ''The Trouser Press Record Guide'' opined: "When intently focused, Home can squeeze an agreeably synthetic, Devo -esque poptone (like 'Make It Right') from its gizmos. More often, though, Home lapses into wildly freeform freakouts (like 'Atomique') that combine electronic noise, found sound and even a bit of spoken word. ... Those endowed with short attention spans will no doubt have the easiest time making it all the way through ''IX''." {Link without Title} The members of Home also helped found the Screw Music Forever recording label and music collective. Besides releasing Home's own 7-inch singles, Screw Music also has released recordings by related bands such as Dumbwaiters , Pee Shy , Leels and the 100% Storms Ensemble . Home's 16th album, ''Sexteen'', which the band describes as "a concept record about fucking," was released in 2006. This album also marked the end of the band's longstanding relationship with its European label, Cooking Vinyl . During the same year, members of Home performed under the name Home Hunters during the Come The Freak On music festival at Bombshell Gallery in St. Petersburg, Florida . As of late 2006, Home was making preparations for its next album, ''Seventeen'', envisioned as the soundtrack to a movie that the band members were simultaneously preparing to film. MEMBERS
