Received another fine transmission from the kind & generous folks at Cephia's Treat Records. Not sure when this was released, because, like Sun Ra's original stuff, these records ain't dated. These folks've been putting some of the weirdest musical & visual artifacts on the East Coast since the 90's, slow and sure like. Transit Moms deliver. They play a variety of sub-underground genres on this 7inch all with a worn-out-with-time sound quality like a VHS in 2020. The grit and 'verb is top notch here folks. Back to th' genres. They play a reverbin and sorta hypnogogic indie psych (think Bloody Valentine/Bardo, executed as a duo) then they wake up reverbin an E & A string garage bonk but still with the old VHS sound. Their track from 'Heavy On Th' Gunk' cassette comp (put out by me) is a 'Daydream Nation' label hugger on this 7inch, with new (to my ears) vocal parts. The sleeve is a real treat too with Pengo style ancient etching cover and a nice collage revealing some of Cephia's secrets. Get this 7inch and stay on the train to Tampa.
