The Books

[Moon Rabbits]

LISTEN TO THEM.

LOVE THEM. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Cx10MrMYB4&feature=related)

Are you a fan?

[krissy]

yep
that's incidentally my fave song too

I have two of their albums, they're certainly an interesting band, I don't think I've ever heard anyone like them before. I still need to get The Lemon of Pink though.

[krissy]

the Prefuse 73 mixes of them are pretty good too. i don't even know if they are mixes, maybe they just got together and did stuff.

Mine too :o

Pretty long bump!

The Lemon of Pink was an interesting album though the found sound is not exactly my cup of tea; it was worth listening through and I mean to find an occasion to do so again!

yes, i find myself very much a fan of their first album, less a fan of the lemon of pink, and i did not like their third album.
