Mixerr Album Reviews #1,374

This is Michael Mixerr. Tonight I am reviewing Lil Capn Travis - For All the Trick or Treaters.

For All the Trick or Treaters was an EP that was released on CD in 2003 by their own independent label Sleep Bunny Music in Austin, Texas. This EP would serve as a prelude and precursor to their 2004 album In All Their Splendor which was released on Glurp Records from Seattle, Washington. 4 songs were included on this EP. To all LCT fans, if you were looking for a full album, you will be disappointed as this recording is an EP.

This EP was locally in the Austin area only which is why the EP is highly sought after by LCT fans. The EP itself is rare and quite hard to find in stores. LCT's EP sold for $2 to $3 at Waterloo Records at the time the recording was sold. But that alone does not stop the album from being difficult to find.

For All the Trick or Treaters is the title track to this EP. Powerful psychedelic rock music is what is played on the song. Their songcraft/songwriting is as powerful and trippy as ever. The song has a foggy mellow vibe. Oddly the vibe is not spooky. Take notice the two-step used in this song. Overall this track is the best track off the EP. With Caroline is a teenage love song. The EP finalizes with the mystical song Magic Of December. Magic Of December is a hard rock driven ballad song. The song sort of has a country music feel.

I rate this EP, For All the Trick or Treaters, 5/5*****!!
