The Cat's Miaow have been experiencing a bit of a renaissance. First was the great 7" split with Rocketship. Now, London based label World of Echo is releasing this 2 LP (bonus cassette) behemoth "The Cassette Years: '92-'93". World of Echo previously released the compilation "Songs '94-'98".
The Cat's Miaow were based in Melbourne, Australia. Members went on to form great bands like Hydroplane, Bart and Friends (both of which have been covered here previously).
The Cat's Miaow must have drawn inspiration from the C86 and Flying Nun sounds. They definitely set the stage for bands like Belle and Sebastian.

They began to use the Allison Aircraft engines because they were USAF surplus and cheap, and they could supe them up to the point of near self-destruction and just buy a new one when it blew up.

I’m a Trailmakers player, one of my top 5 games easily, a block based vehicle building sandbox, and it’s one of the few I’ve found with really nice buoyancy and lift mechanics.
I’m telling you all this because I wanna brag about the fact that I’m 22nd in the world on one of the boat races right now with a sub 1 minute lap and the jet boat I made is super pretty. 530kph in a straight line and handles like it’s on rails.
It has an airliner turbine behind the cockpit, which pushes it forward and down, and the two paddles on the front skids hold it up off the water on hydroplane. There are two more in the back that act more as an elevator, holding the back end up and balanced on the front planes. Two points of contact with the water, super streamlined body, minimal drag.

The Cat's Miaow and Rocketship are putting out a split single of new music. There's a total of 5 songs here - 3 from Melbourne, Australia based The Cat's Miaow who along with Portland's Rocketship were active in the 1990s and are in the midst of comebacks. The Rocketship song available is a lovely cover of "Moon Love". The Cat's Miaow and their alter ego Hydroplane are experiencing a bit of a renaissance. Bart Cummings also has released work under the moniker Bart & Friends.
The only thing cooler than this split 7" is the labels who are co-releasing it - Lost and Lonesome (Melbourne) and Jigsaw (Portland).
