the followup to their debut is out only 17 years later. and it's fucking ace. ben jacobs' fingerprints are all over it too which is definitely a good thing, can't beat max tundra for bonkers pop magic. anyone heard this?

bump cos this really shouldn't be overlooked, if they're too pop for you (pfft, i fart in your general direction) then console yrself with the last track, a captain beefheart cover no less. the whole album is just joyful

You and I alone is great. I’m not a fan of the vocals on the new one, but them having a go at Ed Sheeran is quite funny. Will listen to the album later.

hah i'd never even thought of it being aimed at ed sheeran, seems obvious now. they aren't above a diss track, I always remember that line from "ooh stick you", "you got the iq of a digeridoo", always thought that was funny as fuck
