Well, here it is!
The infamous, hard to find "soundtrack" tape by Shrimp Olympics wunderkind Austin Lombardo! Truly up there in mystique with Pataphysics' fabled "We Are Eating Slime" tape, and Ariel Pink's "It's Hard To Take A Shit on Mushrooms and Speed", both of which probably don't even exist.
This tape, along with the even more elusive "chopped onions" tape which I'm still tracking down, had some of its more accessible tracks put into the recent Cemetery Saddle EP. It's mostly a collection of Silk Lizard outtakes (most notably, the excellent Glove Crimes), audio experiments and other forays into plunderphonics.
This rip is 1:33:37 (heh), and it's certainly a lot to take in. From the soaring highs of Glove Crimes and the new, fucked up version of Emily, to the audio art of that Norwegian Girls' Choir collage, it's beautifully bizarre, and a treasure to have in my collection.
Listen to Glove Crimes first. Then a few more times on loop. You won't be disappointed.
