![[audio]](/images/mediatype_audio.gif) | Tape Store - Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis Your Mom [JAM-019 TAPE]
New signee and former fifteen-year-old Chris Boeckmann's debut, showcasing a reappraisal and revitalization of music recording and structure. Soundscapes dubbed together from piano, synthesizers, rewinding CDs, found tapes, and spoken dialogue stare down 'pop' music and the politics of low-fi in this precocious ambient comedy palimpsest. Numbered run of 30 duped-over cassettes, original individual duct-tape packaging by Chris...

| The I Love You But I'm Not In Love With Yous - Long Live Jimmy Tango [JAM-008]
In many ways, still the Cat Jams flagship album. Art- and drinking-prodigy high school kids reinventing popular music for lack of else to do, performing a series of unpredictable (sometimes physically dangerous) shows, getting banned for life from performing at Amnesty International events, and finally splitting up at the threat of becoming a real band and going on to form pretty much every relevant music entity in Columbia, Missouri (Warhammer 48K, Miami Dragons, Sabertooth, Tittyfuck Jubilee),...

| The Lesch Nyhan Syndrome - Sterile Hero [JAM-010]
The pre-side project of Jarrett and Matt, of Emergency Umbrella's local commercial rockers Kingdom Flying Club. LNS x KFC = different sides of the same coin. In a creation myth mirroring and predating Swamp Fuck's, a multi-session retrospective on a concertedly unconcerted effort to fuck tha haterz and make some dumb music, albeit with more unsuppressible music ability than SF (and an actual four-track)...

| The Pows - Hits! [JAM-014]
This disc compiles both Pows albums -- 2003's two-piece bare-bones garage rocker The Pows (recorded when Zach and Rex were both 15) and 2004's three-piece-plus-crazy-psych-production Neoon Winteeer -- as well as their three Rodenburg Compilation tracks and one live electronic jam; in other words, every released note of music (because everything they made was a Hit). With tracks resequenced and remastered for prime flow, and original Rockmanesque artwork by Nick Lambeth, this slick package is des...

| The Pows - Neoon Winteeer [JAM-009]
The followup to their eponymous debut, Neoon Winteeer sees the Pows breaking all sorts of self-created rules upon turning 16 -- adding bassist Ryan Haas and recording songs longer than a hundred seconds (sometimes even featuring bridges!), for example. Also new on this disc is a near-complete abandonment of the garage-rock idiom in exchange for a wicked psychedelic thrash; songs were recorded either at home on four-track cassette or onto reel-to-reel tape at the home studio of new-age multiinstr...

| The Pows - The Pows [JAM-007]
The debut album by Zach McLuckie (guitar and vox) and Rex McMurry (drums). Both of them were 15 years old at the time of this two-hour recording session, but bizarrely economical song structures and lyrics (note the absence of a single bridge, nor a song long enough to need one) foreshadow the duo's future involvement in nearly every art-damaged rock group in their burgeoning college town. Track 11, 'Imagainational Figments,' was an unlisted track on the CD's initial release...

| Thee Pepsies - Thee Pepsies Want To Kill Your Mama: A Cat Jams Remix EP [JAM-017 TAPE]
Cat Jams celebrity mixtape installation by Columbia, MO DJ/label head Jason K-fer. Artwork by thirteen-year-old post-female digital artist Bob Dynamite. The original run of 33 was duped onto donated second-hand commercially released tapes, creating an uneasy truce between the mixset and whatever early-'90s country album was already present. This is a Cat Jams Label release.
