Lambchop

i saw them at the airport once. i want to like them, but have no heard much of them.

sorry had to do it

Yeah, I tried to give them a go... but I just can't get into it.

I too have heard little/close to none/none. Hmmm. I don't spose they're like Lamb?!! Just kiddin.

kurt wagner is a total genius (or, at least, he was. the last few things i've heard have been pretty uninspired)

"how i quit smoking" is my second favourite album EVER

a little e-introduction...

www.lambchopdamaged.com

i love lambchop. 'damaged' is brilliant. as is 'is a woman' amongst other great albums. the hands off cuba one is fantastic. about hands off cuba, do they have other releases?? i looked around a bit for a while but couldnt find anything. i found their myspace but thats all...

as for lambchop

Hey, new album! I haven't heard it, well I'm listening to the stream now. Just a heads-up really. I don't know if I really need another Lambchop album but I suspect I'll buy it. More of the same is not such a bad thing.

I like 'em, Nixon especially. The new one isn't getting especially great reviews . . .

Really? These don't look so bad. I figure he's a pretty known quantity these days, no big surprises (though there was that CoLab thing). I reckon there's a bit of genius on every album, couldn't pick a favourite and I have almost all of them.

And sum1, who is that in your avatar? Looks familiar but I can't place the, er, face...

Damn, this new album is fantastic. Three listens in and I'm so very hooked. I bought the City Slang special edition which has an extra disc of alternative versions, but no booklet. What, no Kurt lyrics?! Does the standard edition have the booklet? Ah, never mind, there's a pdf on City Slang's site. It'll have to do. Still - beautiful album.

It was Sharon Tate. Now it's a bit of man-on-ape action.

Booking my plane tickets for Sydney already...

The album opener to Lambchop's new album, 'Mr. M' - to be released (on Spunk) Friday February 24, 2011. If Not I'll Just Die. Luvverly as always.

so any melbourne shows for lambchop/kurt??

Sadly not.

new album is great - who produced? brilliant sounds and space within the notes.

This is the song that doesn't end,
Yes, it goes on and on my friend,
Some people started singing it not knowing what it was
And they'll continue singing it forever just because.

jeez their new one, ''Mr. M'', is good! Some of the prettiest strings arrangements I have heard for some time.

The Spunk/ Cooperative local version isn't officially out 'til Friday, but I reckon you'll find it in the stores tomorrow. Polyester certainly should have it.

I dunno if it's just the right music for a half-melancholy/half-lovely Saturday morning, but right now I'm thinking Mr M could be their best ever.

Good little video (9 mins) about the album from Kurt here.

Pitchfork's excellent 5-10-15-20 series (artists talk about the music in their lives at age 5, 10, 15, etc...) puts Kurt in the spotlight.
