The Out West EP is a short, infectious blast of
Cadallaca, showcasing the group's wry humor on tracks like "The Trouble With Public Places" (not to mention the campy cover photo). Overall, it shows a looser side of the musicians involved, and even if it isn't as essential as, say,
Sleater-Kinney's output, it's a fun, enjoyable listen in its own right. ~ Steve Huey
