Cave ushers in May flowers with Pure Moods, kickass krautrock jams via Drag City

May is a great month. It’s spring! It’s the month I’m going on vacation! It’s when the new Cave album, Pure Moods, comes out on Drag City! Little is known about this mysterious album, but here’s a word from our friend David Fricke of Rolling Stone: “Chicago’s Cave spiritually hail from a weird quadrant where the German pulse of Can and Amon Düül II overlap post-punk Britain.” That’s what he said. WOW! What a glowing recommendation.

If you want to experience this WOW factor in person, well — behold — Cave is heading out on tour ‘soon.’ Pure Moods is due May 18.
