Four brand new Cast of the Capital songs can be listened to at

Cast Of The Capital <castofthecapital>

All tracks were recorded in Dundee with Robin Sutherland (Stapleton, Tellison, Jacob Stories etc) between 14th and 17th April 2008.

Tracks will be uploaded onto myspace soon. There is currently an error which is stopping us from doing so

Thanks

Also enjoyed them.

Wasn't overly enamored with the vocals but the tunes were really good I thought.

The songs are up on Myspace now.

MySpace.com - Cast Of The Capital - Aberdeen, UK - Indie - www.myspace.com/castofthecapital

However, bebo allowed us to upload files of a higher bitrate, so they sound much nicer there

We have uploaded the final edits of the songs onto our Bebo and Myspace site. All four tracks were mastered by mastering legend Dave Collins (Jack Johnson, Linkin Park, The Police) in his Los Angeles based studio.

The tracks are better off listened to on Bebo as we were allowed to upload files of a higher bitrate!

Thanks

Steve

I wouldn't call him a legend from that client list

Anyway, I had a listen to Passing the Horse, it reminds me of Teenage Fanclub's sunnier moments, but a bit more twee I guess. Good song though, I did enjoy it.

"Passing the Horse" totally reminds me of Built to Spill, but much more straight up and less quirky. Like a cross between Lemonheads and Built to Spill. I enjoyed.

"The Witching Hour" is slightly more bland and doesn't grab me quite as much. It's still utterly inoffensive and relatively pleasant though.

I really appreciate the vocal ability in both songs above all else.

All in all, thumbs up from my humble corner.

Passing the Horse is a great song. Well done on the Stapleton support slot.

Hey,

Glad you all enjoyed the tracks! If any one likes, I could post them a (free!) copy of our latest disc.

Just Pm me with your postal address!
