The other day I ran into this compilation album in a record shop. It was released earlier this year on the German label Trikont (never heard of them before) & Jeff drew the fab cover art! It features a really moving song from the indie rock fortune cookie fortune cassette, called "Everyone's honest", along with songs by Dufus, Double Deuce, Calvin Johnson, Huggabroomstik, The Babyskins....
Definitely worth a listen (and much more!).

Yeah, months ago I saw this in a shop and recognised the picture, and bought it instantly. It's absolutely amazing. I already knew a few songs on there (Dufus, Kimya, Andre...). There were so many bands that I'd heard of but had never been able to check out (The Microphones. Prewar Yardsale, Double Deuce...). I still listen to it all the time.

It was the same thing for me! My eyes immediately got caught by the very inimitable Jeff Lewis drawing...!  And the music is of course very good. |
