On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

The Loon in June

 

The Loon is the first full-length release from Minneapolis indie band Tapes ‘n Tapes. While not the high-water mark of originality (playing a wide mash of influences from the various Pavements-like bands of 80s lo-fi & indie), they definitely play with a boundless energy & enthusiasm throughout all the album's eleven tracks. Derivative or not, The Loon retains a genuinely empathetic sincerity that gives weird, left-of-centre indie an enjoyable platform.
