A shift of character, PREfection is a record of swooning romance, with a pristine guitar pop heart. The mood is a timeless one of slumbering, echo-y drums, ghostly organ drones, reverb-shuddering guitars, and Cass' vocals taking the foreground, towering with an understated emotive quality, either whispering in your ear or losing itself in its own melodies.

VINYL FORMAT. Cass McCombs currently resides in Baltimore MD, the home of the Ouija board. A voracious songwriter, Cass' decision to hone his band and music in Charm City's thriving creative climate is an apt one indeed.
