Roy Tapes Art Farmer the record balances moody atmosphericsThe Roy Tapes, released to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Spunt's label, PPM, is a collection of seven songs that were shelved for nearly seven years. It offers a glimpse into the early stages of No Age, with more melodic and playful use of noise instead of aggressive anger. Includes a cover of Negative Approach's "Can't Tell No One".
