Put early Built To Spill, Endless Summer-era The Ventures, and Foolish-era Superchunk into a blender on puree during a Florida hurricane ... That’s The Cadets.  This retrospective spans the career of a Gainseville-Florida ensemble that has toiled in chill obscurity since the early 1990s.  Features a young Chad Matheny (Emperor X). The Cadets formed after a Man or Astroman? show in 1995 at Einste A Go Go, one of the only all-ages venues in the area. They bonded in the noisy ether coming from college radio and vintage underground surf music. Rumbling away in a small garage, they built their frenetic thundering drum style around fast-twitch searing lead rhythms and melodies fertile with nervous energy. Inside those urgent drums and angular chords came their melodic hooks, catchy and strong, laden with unexpected twists. This lineup toured Japan and all along the US east coast until 2007. More than a decade later, they began to swap recordings for new songs, pushing into new territory they only saw on the horizon as teenagers. Delightfully peculiar and full of immediacy, The Cadets arrive at your ear having skidded briskly across the table yet perfectly upright and nary a drop wasted. Their sonic experiments produce songs that possess a rare energy that conjures the early days of rock & roll, sci-fi adventures, and diary entries never intended for the light of day. Lyrics filter larger themes through a tilted and tinted lens of wideeyed fantastic reverie. Brainwashed spies, mythical chimera, despera refugees, and jilted lovers all become protagonists and truth tellers.
