    Slump n bump

    Crypt Thing's Rotational Slumping record is absolutely ridiculous, an utter hedonistic treat from start to finish. It reminds me of this party I heard of recently, based around the concept of gorging yourself on ice cream topped with various pizza toppings and then dancing all night. That's this record: a delirious, sugar-coded narcotic ride through mall-pop and breakbeats, glorious and evil at the same time. 

    Perfume Girls by Crypt Thing

    This song, "Perfume Girls", is one of my favorites on the record. It's Tiffany being kidnapped from...or, worse yet, locked inside her ever-present mall..forever.  

    When I say that, to me, this song sounds like a clown party, I hope it's understood that I mean it keeps me up at night in terror.

    Check out Crypt Thing at the Living Tapes site.
