The Quiet Trial, the brand new instrumental album by Cassettes Won't Listen dropping November 28th! Available right here at Dope Lotus Records and other fine distributors.

Fresh off of 6 months of studio time working on remixes for artists such as Asobi Seksu, The Diggs, Morcheeba, Dr. Octagon, Mr. Lif, Midlake, and others, CWL brings us a beautifully crafted instrumental album titled, The Quiet Trial. It's a step in a new direction compared to his critically acclaimed 2005 EP, Nobody's Moving, which garnered comparisons to early Beck and The Postal Service. CWL is already back in the studio working on the follow up to Nobody's Moving which will be released in the Spring of 2007.

Don't miss the next CWL show at Mercury Lounge NYC on December 6th with The Grates!
