Cardiacs were known for their very eccentric stage shows and creating a blend of post-punk, psych pop, and alternative rock. The band was led by Tim Smith and have been noted as influencing bands such as Blur, Faith No More, & Radiohead. I have two of their albums and I plan on releasing the other one, Seaside sometime in the future. This is such a bizarre album and I mean that in the best way possible of course ;) It's weird, noisy, wacky - all in all a very fun ride! This album was released as a cassette tape (remember those?) hence the rusty quality. But I think it really adds to the charm. ENJOY PUNKS!
Some more album info:
Toy World is the second album released by Cardiacs (including The Obvious Identity, released on cassette the previous year under the band name "Cardiac Arrest"). The cassette is a mixture of older songs by the earlier Cardiac Arrest lineup and newer songs by the then-current Cardiacs lineup. This was the last album to feature keyboard player/backing singer Colvin Mayers, and the first to feature saxophonist/backing singer/occasional keyboard player Sarah Cutts (who on all future releases would be referred to as Sarah Smith). -WikiPedia
