...downright visionary). The same goes for Lady Gaga and Brazilian Girls in the album category. I'm not exactly a huge fan of either. But are they fresh and sort of rep what's happening now? Absolutely And then there's Sam Sparro (Best Dance Recording), who's a particular point of pride for the 'blogga. When I wrote about him last year I knew...

...downright fantastic falsetto singing). There's a lot to love here-- Zorn and Patton's call and response at the beginning of "Litany II", Zorn leading Dunn and Baron on a freewheeling imrpov that ranks among the best of his frantic work on "Litany V" (where somehow all the elements of the rest of the record seem to come together), Saft just...

...downright dumb. I also dont really understand how this got turned into over an 8-minute track to. This is a dance song, Pain of Salvation style. And that is not a good thing. Kingdom of Loss This was my favorite track on the album after it came out, but it has certainly died down. Its still ok, but feels like this is just something that shows...

...downright depressing. I'm a big fan of Jethro Tull and Renaissance and enjoy the folkier side of English Prog, but this GG record is not on par with the best of that sub genre Another knock I have against Octopus are the length of the songs: 8 pieces in 34 minutes and 15 seconds. Doing the math yields an average of four minute songs! You may...

...downright enjoyed their post-punk dance-funk hybrid regardless. Everyone looked downright stunning despite their age, and the band sounded lush and tight as they blasted through a number of old gems and that Al Green by way of Talking Heads cover. The band was having a blast, and those who had arrived were too. It's also important to note...
