The album cover also convinces me that they're all men. Look at them. The one on the left simply cannot be female.

More like hilarious. I think the only reason Frank Zappa praised that album so much was to be ironic.

I'll definitely say, though, that there is something eerie and naive in the album's sound and lyrics. The story behind it is fairly interesting. too ... you should look into it.

now that you mention it....it does remind me of the jocks dressed up like cheerleaders from Revenge of the Nerds!

Haven't bought a cd for while, but the most recent one I bought was a collection full of great midis called "Sleeping under the stars". It's a great way to relax and be at peace!

I finally got hard copies of both "F#A#oo" and "Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven" today. It's nice to have them along with their liner notes.

I haven't downloaded anything since early June before I went on vacation, because when I returned I couldn't turn on my desktop computer and have yet to fix it. So I've been using my laptop and haven't bothered to install my download software. Plus, I really want to return to my regular iTunes library before I download more stuff. Though I'm being quite lazy about fixing the computer and getting more comfortable with the laptop. Anyway, I did buy two digital releases this week, since both were released only in that format and I wanted to support the artists.

Ochre - Early Learning (2011)

A collection of early recordings from the pre-'Midsummer' era (2001-2003), professionally remastered and assembled in July 2011. IDM for fans of Plaid, Boards of Canada, etc. I have his other 3 albums and they are pure bliss. Name your price download (various formats including FLAC) at bandcamp.

Phoenecia - Demissions (2011)

IDM akin to Autechre. Haven't listened to it yet, but by some accounts it's reminiscent of Autechre's Draft 7.30.

Kendrick Lamar - Section.80 (2011)

New hip hop album that's been getting some good reviews. I'm only 5 tracks in and I'm enjoying it, it's a pretty unique album for underground hip hop. It's pretty blunt in its subject matter, but it's well written and delivered so it works. The beats are pretty nice too. I'd definitely recommend this if anyone is looking for some new hip hop.
