I've Been Gone Far Too Long… is a weathered post-card born by hand and wire through downpours and snowy drifts and sweaty lodges that anticipates the careful scripting of a lengthier, long-overdue letter to come. The Cassettes continue to explore the musical landscapes that they discover, even as this release might betray a longing gaze homeward, toward kith and kin.

The 7" vinyl version even includes a post-card which urges the listener to make a first step towards reconnection with lost friends/loved ones, hand to pen and pen to paper. Vinyl also contains a special LOCK GROOVE!
