The Sun City Girls were unlike any band before them or that has come in their wake. Their catalog, their ethos, their *being* - you name it, with the Girls that "it" was singular and became legend. While the band would prove to be wildly prolific throughout their existence, during their nascent days they quickly realized that they could not be contained by any sort of traditional label schedule. Ideas were simply coming to the trio too rapidly to even entertain the notion of being constrained by the possibility of "only" releasing at most two albums a year. To best answer the flood of ideas the name of the game was move fast, record, release and move onto the next concept. This formed the concept and ethos behind the band's Cloaven Cassette project.

Running 1987-1990, Cloaven Cassettes ultimately covered a staggering twenty-two titles. One title might contain lo-fi deconstructed classic rock covers, another prank phone calls interspersed with free jazz inspired improvisations. The "you never know what you are going to get" spirit that ultimately inspired (and frustrated!) so many was here and on display from an early date.

Over half of these tapes have never been reissued in any fashion or format. Between 2003 and 2009 Eclipse Records re-released ten of Cloaven over a series of double albums which each represented two of the tapes.

The third of these Cloaven Cassettes pairs "Cloaven Theatre" and "That Old Western Sieve". For those who have never tracked down horribly sourced mp3 rips of any of these online, get ready for a world full of explorations that immediately drip with that one-of-a-kind Girls sound. A welcome respite in these current days, once again the Sun City Girls are here to the rescue when we least expected them.
