THE REVIEW

The 5RC label is in a state of grace. In just a few weeks, they've put on the table the new (very beautiful, albeit a bit heavy) album by Xiu Xiu, Metalux, and this one by Need New Body. And they hit the jackpot.
An unclassifiable album, with a Zappa-like spirit, fundamentally folk but truly an incredible mix. There isn't a track that resembles another. Imagine the chaos live... I bet they'll be (un)dressed like absolute idiots...

If I had to find a place for this splendid work, I would put it in the little shrine where I lovingly preserve the latest from the gigantic Animal Collective, "Sung Tongs". They're completely crazy, as you can tell from the cover... no wonder their website is wonderful in its absurdity.
Long live the lunatics, then.

Recommended: for lovers of music full of creative passion and without inhibitions
Not recommended: for those who listen to Coldplay... spare me...
