About

Funderbird Cassette

Features

Read full description

The first full length album from the Michigan post-punk group FUNDERBIRD. Revisit hearing music like we did in the 80s and 90s. The true cassette tape listening experience. Fast forward, rewind, auto reverse .... all the hi-tech buttons ... Walkman not included because it got stolen at a party.
