In my opinion this owns gorillaz but then again Im not much for music that sounds like pop.

Subtle - Mercury craze

AND if anyone picks up "for hero: for fool" you NEED to listen to midaz guts. I'll see if I can find a sample online when I get back from work...

Also check out his work as 'themselves'.

wow i really liked swan meat... much more than the mercury craze (sounded too whiny).
swan meat reminded me a lilttle bit of Beta Band's second album when the were incorporating hip hop into weid soundscapes.

thanks for the links bro!

EDIT: FKO is my fave

lugaru

No prob... I didint link FKO because the F stands for something we cant quote here so I figured there would be plenty of words with the letter F in the comments even if I dont remember if they are in the lyrics. The K and the O stand for Kelly and Osbourne respectively, and it's a song about frustrations on releasing records while certain princesses have them made for them and can expect a wide release.

But yeah, I think it's one of their best tracks, its really folksy and complex. The new album sounds a tiny bit overproduced in comparison and a little spastic (they wrote it over distance) but it's still great.
