Description
Do not eat or drink anything past midnight prior to your appointment- NO FOOD, NO LIQUID. Non-sensical, un-user friendly, at times half finished. Camper Van Beethovens second album ‘II & III’ saw the folk-punk of the bands debut LP morphing into an even wider array of stylistic influences and (un)ironic contradictions, all rolled up into a coherently incoherent collection of some of the bands most defining songs. Originally released in 1986, the follow up to ‘Telephone Free Landslide Victory’ did much to develop an already iconoclastic Camper Van Beethoven idiom. ‘II & III’ ranges from alt-country ballads (‘Sad Lovers Waltz’) to call-backs to the European folk instrumentals of their earlier work (‘No Krugerrands For David’, ‘4 Year Plan’). Also featured is the bands bluegrass-Americana take on Sonic Youths ‘I Love Her All the Time’, satiating their appetite for cover songs.
