Rating: 7.5 meth loads out of 10

Kublai Khan were a Berkeley band in the June of 44/Shipping News math rock mold, which is a direct descendent of Slint and that lot.  I first heard of them from a Zum compilation, and surely picked this up used at some point at one of the local Amoeba Records.  All three songs on this are great and highly recommended if you like those bands already mentioned.  As a bonus, the second song is called "Ricky 'The Dragon' Steamboat."  Let's get more songs named after awesome wrestlers music producers!
