Way cooler than I assumed from the band name. Also - I have no idea how I missed these guys back in the early 90's.

You say "we need more energy", I turn on Electric Callboy. Great ridiculous add to an already wild assortment of music.

Very synthesized, almost ambient "jam music." Ze Germans always had a good corner on this particular type of music. Had never heard of them until now. Based on late 60's-70's timeframe I'd imagine lots of bands watched these guys and took notes for the late 70's-80's synth "noise bands."

RIGHT IN THE FEELS. This brings me back. Can't disagree with blink-182. 2 people picking blink on "personal choice" records is a bit wild... I think the Blink 182 self titled is probably "more 1001" however you can't go wrong with Enema of the State.

Pigeons Playing Ping Pong
4/5
I had low expectations as I had never heard of PPPP before. They surprised me. It was a really well mixed live album, their "jam band" style was great, but their lyrics lacked content imo (do you expect great lyrics with a name like them?). Its all good though as lyrics were more secondary to the music. I will definitely listen to more PPPP.

Sufjan Stevens
3/5
Pretty standard Sufjan. His writing is great but it all starts blending together. A couple tracks usually stand out but this record didn't hit it for me like some of his others.
Cardiacs
2/5
Not for me. Prog. rock rarely tickles my fancy and the Cardiacs didn't do it for me (so far). I tried to listen to both discs (whatever was Spotify) and I think I made it to about the 50 minute mark before I had to move on. I'll visit the last 40 minutes later.

I went in blind. For some reason I assumed Os Mundi was Latin American...until I saw other albums...and went "but that's German", then I was confused. It all makes sense now. Prog-rock, german 70's band, singing about Latin Mass. Weird pick.
