Psychic Psummer

by Cave

On 2 August 2009, I walked into the Monorail record shop (12 Kings Court, Glasgow, G1 5RB) at the back of the excellent Mono veggie bar/restaurant) and heard this. It sounded, as this review puts it, “at once immediately familiar and entirely original”. “Who’s that?” I asked the guy behind the counter. “Cave”, was the answer. (Never heard of them before.) “Here’s the cover.” He gave me an LP cover to peruse. (I read here that LP is limited to 1000 copies and is available in blue and yellow vinyl. How cute.) “I think there should be a CD as well.” Indeed, there was one, so I walked out of the shop with my copy of Psychic Psummer.

I am listening to it right now, again. Believe me, it is gorgeous.
