In the next chapter in the ongoing life and times of Raymond Raposa, who goes by the name Castanets, we get Texas Rose, The Thaw, and The Beasts out September 22nd on Asthmatic Kitty. On this album he flexes his strong San Diego connections as he gets pals from Rocket From the Crypt, Gogogo Airheart, and one of the "oh, that makes sense" pairings in Black Heart Processions Pall Jenkins, and one "oh, that really doesn't make sense, but it sort of does" in the form of a very non-San Diego resident (or is he?), David J. from Bauhaus. Plus labelmate DM Stith will make an appearance, making it quite obvious that Mr. Raposa obviously went through his Rolodex for this one.
