The Cassettes'Neath the Pale Moon (2006)Buddyhead Records Reviewer Rating: User Rating: Contributed by: greg0rb (others by this writer | submit your own) Published on February 27th 2007
I didn’t know what to expect from the Cassettes. Leader Shelby Cinca’s previous outfit, Frodus, was self-proclaimed “spazzcore.” The Cassettes’ early material sprouted from Cinca’s four-track pop diversions from his main gig and their first full-length received lukewarm reviews for its poorly recorded psychedelic fuzz-rock. A couple years and another release later, Cinca’s songwriting took a sharp turn as he picked up new backing members who each bring interesting input into the band’s sound, resulting in untraditional arrangements that surprised me throughout the album.

buddyhead releases are by far the most underrated releases out there. Great album, and a criminally underappreciated one at that. Excellent CD. this is a really solid, fun record. then again i like anything with shelby cinca's name attached to it. he is truly an underapprieciated artist. The Cassettes are hitting the road! solid review. thanks. There was supposed to be a "plus" symbol after jawharp. Now I look even more like a jackass Jawharp Copious amounts of alcohol = Chipped tooth oooo | Features
