[.ca] Moldy Peaches

most rocking album:
i honestly cannot get enough of this album. i've had it for about two years and tend to forget about it until i get really bored with all music. then i find it, and it makes me smile and think the world has not sold out. it's a cross between really amazing music and the band we all tried to start in college. the fuzzy, blown-out, 4-trackyness of this album only adds to its greatness and its pleasure to listen to. i forget which song it is, but the song ends with the words 'flawless victory' from mortal kombat and then goes into this funny little electronic clarinet, oboe ditti that is just one of the finest moments in recent music. basically, every time i rediscover this album, it lives in my cd player for weeks...

Pop as it should be!:
This album is absolutely brilliant!!! I've been listening to it for half a year now and it never sounded to me as something of a low-fi. It has gorgeous pop songs, beautiful melodies, twisted lyrics in fact reminiscent of the lost youth. Among 19 songs there's not a sigle one which i would skip on my cd player. One of the best cds i ever owned (i got it from my ex-girlfriend, thank you Martine!)

On Top:
I might be just a little kid, but I know what rocks. Rap is out; The Moldy Peaches are at the top.

Most Wonderful:
You know, this album is really outstanding. I'm a brit living in the US and this was a recommendation made to me while back in London visting my friend Paul. I had never heard of the Moldy Peaches but when back in CA I ran out and purchased the album...such a good decision. These clever people take their NY smarty-pants, faux-innocence to such an extreme that their songs emerge grounded, natural and even touching. Of course this twisted confessional gels wonderfully with their truly low-fi recording style. The language is unsuitable for church gatherings but is in no way excessive or forced. As other reviewers have noted this is the kind or recording that really allows one to rise above depressed moods and embrace the joyful absurdity of life. Sample lyric: "Withot 40oz of social skills, I'm the ass in the crack of humanity. I'm just a huge manatee" Just Wonderful...purchase immediately.

Fun and totally Original:
This is a great CD full of original ideas. Lo FI all the way. Stripped down and honest fun. Free of bloated production. Not for everybody.......Only those who appreciate honest original songs with no concern for commercial viability. If you like the sample tunes available, then check out a band called ED'S REDEEMING QUALITIES. They sound eerily similar. I have enjoyed ERQ for several years now. Looks like I am also hooked on Moldy Peaches and Adam Green.
