What is it about slightly maudlin jangle pop that sounds so good when captured on cheap cassettes? It's like jewels found in the attic, covered in dust and neglect, and all the more precious for it. At least dudes like Ariel Pink were paying attention. Martin Newell went on to form the Cleaners From Venus, who were just about as unheard as these early recordings. Another nice Internet rescue from the out-of-printdom.Wednesday, September 21, 2011
