Yea this is easily the best of the club so far. Now is it just the weed I'm smoking or is Frank Zappa back from the dead on "Keep Your Children in a Coma?"

I really enjoyed this. After the second listen, my top tracks are: "How Very Strange", "I'm Digging My Own Grave", and "Love Is a Luxury I Can No Longer Afford"

This and Sub Verses are about tied for my favorite so far, with Other Life at 3rd.

Great choice. This was already on my list of required listening for 2013, but had yet to give it a spin. I've been a Magnetic Fields/Stephin Merritt fan for a long long time, and I think Partygoing is one of his best releases in years. I definitely prefer it over the last Magnetic Fields album

How is this the one that has gotten the least attention? It's the only one so far that I've really liked. Might just be me. Bumping this, just cause.
