It sounds like someone grabbed a handful of Vinny's (Peruzzi-sp?)
records--a *small* handful--and is having a field day!

That's my underlying suspicion:  An "April Fools" for the whole month of
April, maybe?
The best thing going for them right now is their audio processing:  Nice
and rich (*almost* "hypnogogic")--though they'll probably turn around
and screw that up!  P=(
Actually, if they kept the rich signal, "The Touch" (formally on
1.150-WNFT) could conceivably be halfway decent on 93.7.

oldies under NYC's 1.560-WQEW, the only ID I've caught so far is "(the
new?) 98-3, Star FM")
