Clown Sounds Par for the Curse cassette
This is the cassette version of the third album for California-based CLOWN SOUNDS. There is an LP version as well, which apparently has a bunch of liner notes and a zine which allegedly explains the concept of this release, none of which are included with the cassette version. I don’t know, it’s an unpleasant mixture of modern pop punk, blues rock, cowpunk, reggae, rock-en-general, and chicken-based song titles and sound clips? An all-around confusing novelty release. Hopefully the LP version is able to shed some light on the confusing aspects of that which is CLOWN SOUNDS.
