What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Clint feeling ecstatic.

Speaking of They Might Be Giants,  there is absolutely no reason for them to exist now that Why? sounds even more like them than he did before. No doubt this great new EP/mini LP  will get called avant-hop or whatever but there's not a slither of hip hop in it whatsoever. The initial impression of this is of intense irritation as the lyrics are pure clever-clever wordy, nerdy American geek. But get past that and the melodies here are skyscrapingly beautiful. Immense pop songs full of imaginative arrangements and tunes that you will never get out of your system even if you could shake your whole body like a dog when it gets wet. Closer 'Mutant John' is the best thing ever. Go Buy. On 12"/CD.

About the humble 12":

The 12" is the big brother of records as it's an fatter version of the 7", with a vast scope for an array of remixes and B sides. They are slightly less portable their smaller inched brethren but they're by no means inferior. Often the grooves are spaced wider apart and thus sound much much better. You can fit ample tracks on and if worse comes to worse they make fine plates (should your crockery go awol). Yes, there's a hole but holes are easy to sort out. Once again they're available on many different colours and guises. The best thing about a 12" is the potential vastness of the artwork. Also playable on many speeds!!
