Trip Maker, Wednesday, 1 February 2012 16:27 (twelve years ago) link

Chances of that cover being better than the music within? Pretty solid. I like the cover though.

i really like this cover

[the album also features diane birch on additional vocals]

mark e, Friday, 3 February 2012 16:38 (twelve years ago) link

It'd be better without the "Phenomenal Handclap Band" text.

(I know next to nothing about the band, the name just makes me irrationally angry)

Who wants to see the great Pavarotti sit on a pie? (jer.fairall), Friday, 3 February 2012 17:08 (twelve years ago) link

you see i was thinking it would be better without the 'form & control' text !

and like you i knew nothing re the band until it dropped through the letter box today

mark e, Friday, 3 February 2012 17:14 (twelve years ago) link

I like both lines of text AND I like this band. So there.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 3 February 2012 17:29 (twelve years ago) link

I've never really heard any of their albums, but I remember KEXP playing a song of theirs I really liked.

Gonjasufjanstephen O'Malley (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Friday, 3 February 2012 17:30 (twelve years ago) link

neener neener.

(I like both band and text and cover, too)

EZ Snappin, Friday, 3 February 2012 17:31 (twelve years ago) link

One of the guys on npr's all songs considered who isn't bob boelin was talking them up quite a bit a few years back. Don't remember what they actually sounded like, but maaan do I hate that name.
