A song like "Slackjaw Romance," off the act's three-song self-titled EP, sounds like it could have come from almost any period in the rock era. In fact, one could easily imagine the song being played in the background of a Happy Days episode. However, "Cassava" combines late 60s jam music with modern day post-punk.
It's been often said that the best things come in small packages, and so Bad Reed has done us a good deed in supplying this brief, three-track introduction. Although not always easily described, this snippet of sound is never difficult to fully enjoy.
