i hope i'm not attacking a general love of cheese and tackiness on the list,
but i enjoy the tracks on the second disc much better; they're generally
sans-vocals and rely more on pseudopsychadelic strings + such. near the end, the
tunes remind me of every visit to the dentist that required a tooth pulled;
swelling musak that's hard to comprehend because you're knocked out on
novocaine. spooky and sexymusic.
honestly, though, i don't know how much longer this lounge revival thing will
last.
