Archaic Fetishism Cassettes - Archaic Fetishism Vol. 2

Copies still available at Long in the Tooth, & possibly from Andrew of Snow Caps and Dan Angel of Raindrops Falling from Heaven.

The second release in the Archaic Fetishism series is a four way split cassingle featuring bizzaro carnival pop songs by Eskimeaux, Raindrops Falling From Heaven, The New Heaven And The New Earth, and Snow Caps.

Eskimeaux is Gabrielle Smith, also known for her work as a member of Br'er. Eskimeaux starts the set with the aptly named "Dreamy Pop Song II," an icy, distant song that embodies the bittersweet loneliness and overwhelming temptation of unobtainable love.

Raindrops Falling From Heaven is the solo work of Ugh God percussionist Dan Angel. Side A closes with Angel's debut track "Old Lady Love," an infectious piece of electronic pop.

The New Heaven and the New Earth is the latest from Roger Martinez, also known as a member of Br'er and a founding member of The Private Sea. Side B opens with "I Live in The Trees," an ode to alienation in the form of an acid-soaked carousel waltz.

Snow Caps is the brainchild of Andrew Keller, who also plays in Hermit Thrushes. Snow Caps closes the set with "Winter Pop Song", a summation of the diverse range of sounds heard on Archaic Fetishism #2 that simulatenously bears Keller's unmistakable songwriting fingerprint.

Archaic Fetishism #2 is a limited release of 100 cassingles packaged in handmade felt pouches, assmembled by hand with hot glue, love and several severe burns.
