Sam 45 Posted March 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Is This Music? ReviewThe humble cassette is the most derided of formats. Sure, it doesnt sound as good as CD and certainly doesnt have the warm fuzz associated with vinyl but as objects go, its just so darn cute! This dinky cassette collects together some of Scotlands top underground (and unsigned) talent. Bringing to mind the cult US punk label SST (many of whose releases were cassette-only, fact fans), this album is an ambitious release. Extremely eclectic, avant metallers Take A Worm For A Walk Week shake hands with the Jeff Buckley-isms of Hijak Oscar. It would be useless to catalogue all the acts on here, given their varied genre and location, but its safe to say that most of these wont be household names in anyones home (except perhaps their own). A few favourites then: Juliet Kilos savage rock will tear the hair off your head, so stock up on wigs. Twin Atlantic sound like an indie band who have swapped Skins for River City, whilst This July look set to make this a summer to remember. A genuine curiosity, this may well become the best compilation of Scottish talent to be collected recently - the sort of thing the word seminal was coined for.//Robin MurrayGet your tapes from One Up for a fiver. I'll also have some with me at the Xcerts gig. We also got a write up in The Fly this month which i will scan in later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam 45 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 That was the wee write up we had to in the Fly. For those of you interested, there are still copies in One Up. You can find it in the local compilations section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
