Cara Del Gato - Green Fingers (2007)

The band is Meg and Wayon Costello who, according to their myspace, live in both Gainesville, Florida and Richmond, Virginia.

Green Fingers is a 15 minute EP recorded in Waylon’s shed. It goes by fast which is fine because you will want to give a good few of the songs multiple listens.

The two that really stuck out at me on first listen were:

“Only Daughter”, a sort of Velvet Underground meets Animal Collective number which pretty much sold me on the release.

“This Town”, a great track beginning with some entertaining dialogues and some how reminiscent of The Unicorns for me. Maybe it’s the keyboards or the spooky childishness…

But, I keep on listening and I keep on liking more of these songs.”Ring Around the Rapture”, for instance, is a folkier number with some grand whistling and then this last song “You’re Aware”….“You’re aware, I’m a werewolf…”

This is brilliant stuff and perhaps a sampler for the many other releases they have available on 001 collective.

I for one am going to go find out!
