2004, Perishable
Includes Califone's two previous out-of-print EPs originally released on US labels (Flydaddy and Roadcone), plus two bonus tracks recorded during the same time period (1998-2000). Tim Rutili and accomplices from Red Red Meat -- Ben Massarella, Brian Deck and Tim Hurley -- get together to bring on the thumping sound of a backwater-electronic hoedown where mournful vocals, troubled synths, and creaky guitars commingle under the mayflies to make a beautiful plea. Corelease with Roadcone records. Great cover design by Jeremy Yoder at newyouth.net. (2002)
