There isn't very much literature out on San Diego's Tape Deck Mountain, but don't let that detract you. When you're releasing EPs and singles on cassette tape, that whole digital information trail tends to not be so effective.

On Wednesday, July 6, they'll be joined by KNESSET and Of The Sky. Showtime starts at 7:30 p.m. Check out this MP3 of their track "P.I." as well as a pretty cool music video for "Scantrons" after the jump.
