Some Girls - The DNA Will Have Its Say E.P. (2005)



Tracklist:

1) I Need Drugs
2) A Sick Cult
3) Me & My Blasphemy
4) The DNA will have Its Say
5) Don't Hate Me Because I Hate You
6) Nazi Rodeo
7) Hot Air Ballons

Two words: vocal flams. This album has it in spades. There's also some music and other sounds present on the album, but goddammit, those vocal flams. At first they sound accidental, but then you hear then in every song and it hits you: you've never heard another record where the vocals were so perfectly off-time. Add to that the whole "I put my guitar through a woodchipper" sound and the completely batshit insane drumming and tempo/time sig changes and you have a winning combination for the worst album you'll never be able to stop listening to.

Mission accomplished, Some Girls, return to base.

PS; Apparently Karen O is on this album, but who cares about Karen O? And I'd write a longer review, but the EP will probably take as much time to listen to as it will for you to read this.

Recommended Tracks:  Just listen to the whole thing. What? Don't give me that shit; you are not too busy to listen to 6 minutes of music.

Additional selling points
- Some Girls contains members of The Locust and The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower among others
- Pitchfork hates the album
- Album artwork is pretty snazzy.

FFO: Daughters, In/Humanity, HeavyHeavyLowLow, TPTBUTET, The Locust
