Milktrain to Paydirt is an album by Trumans Water. It was released in August 1995 by Homestead Records.[3] It was their first studio album without Glen Galloway (who had left to form Soul-Junk),[1] and their first album with Kevin Cascell on drums. It was also their last release on the Homestead label. The song "Off-Peak Arson" features Thurston Moore on guitar.[1] Trouser Press described the album: "The herky-jerky rhythms of "Unitraction Bath" and "Mnemonic Elf Lock" pack a particularly potent post-Fall punch, but that's not always enough to offset the self-congratulatory quirkiness that seems so ingrained in the band's approach".[4]
