U.S. libraries only, due to postage. | |

CORMANS, THEE:
Halloween Record with Sound Effects: LP
The first time I listened to this album, I loved it. Horror-themed instrumentals with surf and R&B elements. It made me think of early Man… Or Astroman? and Impala. The packaging is sweet—heavy cardboard stock and a special slip cover. Subsequent listenings, however, are making me hate it. The low end is practically non-existent and when you can hear the bass and drums, it sounds too trebly. I had to check the sleeve to make sure Kevin Army wasn’t involved (he recorded a lot of late 1980s/early 1990s EastBay bands, mostly for Lookout! Records. Most of his recordings sound like shit—too compressed and trebly.) I don’t know if it’s intentionally recorded in shit-fi but goddamnit, what idiot mixed these recordings? And the band approved this? I think The Mummies cared more about the sound of their records than Thee Cormans do.
–Sal Lucci (In The Red)
