Casual Victim Pile = an anagram of 'Live Music Capital.' This compilation is only meant to reflect what I like in Austin circa 2008-2010, But there's something to be said for a highly arbitrary take on things.
There probably wasn't a focus group employed to select the repertoire for Matako Mazuri's Bands On The Block, Ward 9's Cottage Cheese From The Lips Of Death, and certainly not for the comp. which Casual Victim Pile mostly closely recalls (in my head anyway), Matador's 1991 opus with the ripped off title, New York Eye & Ear Control.
