LP version; includes download. Mental Experience presents a reissue of
Care Of The Cow
's
Dogs' Ears Are Stupid
, originally released only on cassette in 1983. The album is a fascinating blend of psychedelic folk, minimal electronics and post-punk weirdness. Acid fuzz guitar, incredible vocal harmonies, drum machines, and analogue synths make it one of Chicago's best kept secrets, with a history that goes back to 1974. A trio formed by
Victor Sanders
,
X Baczewska
, and
Sher Doruff
, they had a very unique and eclectic sound, experimental yet very melodic, mixing psychedelic folk-rock with art-rock and DIY/post-punk. Their influences were very diverse:
The Beatles
,
Fripp
,
Eno
,
Joni Mitchell
,
Carla Bley
,
Pauline Oliveros
, and
Eric Dolphy
. Care Of The Cow debuted in 1975 with a 10" followed by their first album in 1981. By 1983, the band was adding drum machines and synths to their sound, highlighted by Victor's amazing guitar playing and X and Sher's perfectly blended vocal harmonies, resulting in
Dogs' Ears Are Stupid
, released only as a tiny cassette edition in 1983. For the Mental Experience, this is a lost gem from the '80s underground which really deserved a reissue. Here it is, done in collaboration with
Steve Krakow
of
Plastic Crimewave
/Galactic Zoo fame. Remastered from the master tapes, includes insert with liner notes Krakow and photos.
