| Ride ‘Em On Down (official video): |
| Released: August 26 , 2016 Producer: Rob Schnapf, Cass McCombs & Dan Horne Label: Anti Records |

| “Mangy Love makes itself distinct from its predecessors with its outright jazziness and ethereality. Wit’s End was a traipse though the densely forested hills of solitude; Big Wheel and Others was a road trip through odd, nameless American sub-societies,; and Mangy Love is Cass McCombs in outer space.” – Dustin Lowman (Drowned in Sound) |
