The 1990 Cincinnati Reds

by Kouns & Weaver

supported by

thiccomode Jose Canseco just got his ass knocked out by Billy Football, I guess pumping his huge speed body full of steroids wasn't the move after all. Favorite track: Randy Myers.

J. Brodsky It's not every day that The Residents* make a record about that one time they watched Ken Burns: Baseball and hire Mark Oliver Everett* to cover their tracks with his narration.

*Convince me otherwise. I dare you. Favorite track: Tom Browning.

"Through a series of tweets (maybe retweets) I found out about this album...which immediately made me want to listen because who has ever created an entire album about baseball before."
~ Raised by Cassettes

"Weaver...builds intricate, hallucinatory rhythmic backing for Kouns’ often unrelenting deadpan delivery, plasticky drum patches and sheeny synths and quirky electronic burbles that make this phantasmagoric album even more of a compelling curiosity. 'The 1990 Cincinnati Reds' is not nearly as (properly) educational as one might expect, but it will probably still teach you a lot of things—things you may not want to know, perhaps, but willful ignorance has never helped anyone."
~ Noise Not Music

"Both Rick Weaver and Zack Kouns are musical genii and this album is still greater than the sum of its parts. Here we have – in theory – a series of short tales, each for one member of the 1990 Cincinatti [sic] Reds baseball team, but each one takes a turn into darkly surreal dream stories – all set to the most perfect movie soundtrack ever composed entirely in MIDI and performed entirely using FM synth presets. And somehow it all works"
~ Undrcurrents

"A beautifully deranged abum, rich with detail, violence, poetry, & excess."
~ Evan Greenwood

"I don’t know sh*t about baseball but this is a F*cking masterpiece."
~ Max Gowan [capitalization original, censored at the behest of the MLBPA]

"Be sure to check it out! I think there's even a single about yours truly, the Nasty Boy Rob Dibble."
~ Rob Dibble (Nasty Boy)
