S3,E06: 3/06/06 (Stereolab, Halo Benders, Electric President, Kevin Blechdom, Blanket Music) (Jul 05 2008 02:30 GMT)
First up, the one, the only, the irrepressible Stereolab are back with a new, totally good, album called Fab Four Suture (iTunes, Amazon) which comes out tomorrow and is just as good as anything they've done. We heard one of my three favorite songs called "I Was a Sunny Rainphase." Next was an oldie-but-goodie from The Halo Benders called "Don't Touch My Bikini" from their 1994 record God Don't Make No Junk (iTunes, Amazon). Then Florida's Electric President did "Snow on Dead Neighborhoods" from their debut self-titled album (iTunes, Amazon) which sounds kinda like a lot of other things such as The Postal Service or The Incredible Moses Leroy. Next was California's Kevin Blechdom (who is really Kristen Erickson) doing "Interspecies Love" from both her I Love Presets EP (iTunes, Amazon) and also a later album, but c'mon, it's not THAT good, so just stick with the EP.
