Eat Their Own

Caged Animals -- Eat Their Own -- Lucky Number

Caged Animals is New Jersey native Vincent Cacchione’s self-styled "weird brand of home-recorded pop." Lots of New Wave synth, with dark Neil Young-ish guitar solos and crunch drum machines. Each track is slightly unique from the other, but most have a darker, yearning sense to them. The third track is the best. No FCCs
