I rated this an 8. Must have been a confused day. It's nothing less than a 10 for me. {#Bananajumprope}

Sounds like Martha from Martha and the Muffins.   Okay I am dating myself.  Look them up.

I gave this whole album a listen the other day.  It's quite good!

But Andy Kauffman worked as a busboy somewhere in Hollywood while he was still doing "Taxi".  Paul Lynde wouldn't want to do such messy work if he had to (not without being all aggravated and whiny).

The reviews said this album was different than their earlier work, with a different line-up.  It's the only one I have, and it is well worth listening to all the way through.  Nice variety of songs, but all listenable.

Good song. Good band. But starting to get a bit overplayed. I'm much rather hear "Worry Lines" on heavy rotation.

So many times, I hear something, think, "Oo, that's kind of funky.  Who is it?" and it's Oi Va Voi.  I really should look into this.

I like these guys... Good variety, good choices and well done delivery... Haven't heard a bad one yet.
Thanks- I tell everyone to listen just for this type of experience...

One of the strongest albums introduced into the RP rotation in 2009, imho.

Oh don't be so sure, in fact in this case your strong support greatly outweighs his flippant dismissal.

Actually visibility is usually better than that on Mars. This album is great, it's going to make my best of 2009 list.

This reminds me a bit of Neko Case's sound, and I don't know that I've ever noticed that with Oi Va Voi's music before.

This album is getting very good reviews, so if you are going to pick up any Oi Va Voi album, this would be the one. All the songs that RP plays from the album are good and the free download the band is offering on their website is also good.

Not sure if it's a slam or a nod, but something about this song reminds me of...

The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny

Its a chord change only... but every time it played I switched songs in my head.  The amazing thing is that the tune from TUSoUD actually stuck in my head in any way, shape, or form.

If you go to their website you can download a free song from the album! It's an instrumental, called 'Magic Carpet', and it's good. Don't cha just love free stuff!

Edit - I'll make it easy, here's the website:
