Pick the Cat's Eyes Out: April 2013
http://pickthecatseyesout.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Why not have something that sounds terrible that you can hold? Tuesday, April 30, 2013. Barmy vocals with English accents. Baronic Wall - The Mind of Roses. Baronic Wall's The Mind of Roses. Is so fucking vintage I checked the calendar on my phone. Am I really still here? Or is it 1979? Baronic Wall's take on hard-edged, hypnotic synthpop would feel right snug at home on Hyped2Death's. Baronic Wall has barmy vocals with English accents (they remind me of Dan Treacy. Paper plates that sag. MidLo's self-ti...

Pick the Cat's Eyes Out: July 2012
http://pickthecatseyesout.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Why not have something that sounds terrible that you can hold? Saturday, July 21, 2012. Monterey Babe Aquarium - Monterey Babe Aquarium. Also known as the "Blue Eye Tang," the Twospot Bristletooth. Grows to roughly eight inches in length and is recommended for aquariums 100 gallons or larger. In the wild, the fish eats unicellular algae and other detritus, but in the aquarium, it can subsist on algae-based diets. And then the sounds were captured for this track. On "Aquamarines," the chaos/din/noise is s...

Pick the Cat's Eyes Out: Wonderfully tossed together
http://pickthecatseyesout.blogspot.com/2013/03/wonderfully-tossed-together.html
Why not have something that sounds terrible that you can hold? Thursday, March 21, 2013. Pride of Lowell - Pride of Lowell. Pride of Lowell is not in the song business—they're in the mindfuck business. Got that? Except it's not really channeling. It's more like strangling. At one point, Breiner's tenor sax made a deep, flatulence-like sound that was akin to the air being slowly let out of the universe and I thought, "If this is it, if this is the end, I will expire content.".

Pick the Cat's Eyes Out: February 2013
http://pickthecatseyesout.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Why not have something that sounds terrible that you can hold? Thursday, February 28, 2013. Safe for couples and coupling. Nathan Ventura - Love Songs. Nathan Ventura was exceedingly impressed with our recent vivisections of his work (or: replace "exceedingly" with "dreadfully" and "impressed" with "embarrassed"), so much so he mailed us another cassette. Sonically, Love Songs. The sound of eyes glazing over*. Me: "Did you listen to that Coleman Hawkins album I put on your iPod? So I spun them Socratic's...

Pick the Cat's Eyes Out: January 2013
http://pickthecatseyesout.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Why not have something that sounds terrible that you can hold? Thursday, January 31, 2013. Retreat From Moscow - In Search of Home. Retreat From Moscow (the project of Dubliner Stephen Tunney) sounds absolutely fully formed on debut In Search of Home. In Search of Home. Calls to mind Oh, Inverted World. Or Saturday Looks Good to Me. Or even Sarah Records. A completely unrelated side note to all this: On one of my various trips to Ireland—on this occasion, we were gamboling about Killarney. Ambitious....

Why not have something that sounds terrible that you can hold? Tuesday, May 29, 2012. My tape is haunted. PEACEFANG and Felsenmeer - Dracula Songs. I adore the spectacle of cassettes as much as the music. pEACEFANG and Felsenmeer's Dracula Songs. Is issued on a blood-red tape. A picture on the cassette's cover evokes the Rolling Stones' famous tongue and lips logo. Only this image has blood-drenched fangs. At various points, Dracula Songs. Is reminiscent of Boards of Canada. Friday, May 18, 2012. At one ...

Pick the Cat's Eyes Out: November 2012
http://pickthecatseyesout.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Why not have something that sounds terrible that you can hold? Sunday, November 25, 2012. Got it, boy! Although I maintain most of it is gibberish, the lyric does tell a story. The music industry is currently beset by fiscal disaster and a variety of scandals. One scapegoat for these events has been your and my practice of taping music on blank cassettes. To me, it's a classic case of technology rebounding (if only for a short time) on those who'd seek to control us with it. Dave agrees: "Got it, boy!
