I don't know why but it made me think of that Star Fox three-dimensional Nintendo video game from the 90's.

      <![CDATA[Good on you, Sub Pop.<br />
<br />
Personally, I am quite fond of the following musical acts (among others):  Niki and the Dove, CocoRosie, Zola Jesus, The Knife, Fleet Foxes, and Head and the Heart.<br />
<br />
I also love Tool (greatest band of all time)/A Perfect Circle/Puscifer, NIN/Trent Reznor, Mastodon, System of a Down, and Queens of the Stone Age (among others), so there.<br />
<br />
And this video is great.  How could you not love that electric samurai cat face floating amidst fireworks and bursting into flame?<br />
<br />
You crazy, Dave Segal.

      <![CDATA[yeeeeeaaaahhhh, I'd rather Sub Pop sign another dozen groups like this than Fleet Foxes or Head and the Heart. when not listening to ugly, aggressive slop or some super bummer music, my preferred sound is lots of synths and a lady with a nice yet slightly irritating voice. the whole sensitive guys trying to be like Bread-with-beards-thing needs to die.

      <![CDATA[@3, I’m not implying anything. I am acknowledging that "secretary" has a very gender-specific connotation, and as such carries with it a whole bunch of baggage, namely that people don't take secretaries seriously. This is why we now refer to their job as "administrative assistant."<br />
<br />
(BTW I know I'm being a total feminist joykill right now and I'm not proud of it.)

      <![CDATA["make Zola Jesus sound like Diamanda GalÁs"<br />
<br />
Not sure I understand. Is Zola Jesus considered super easy listening these days? Never heard Niki and the Dove but that analogy doesn't really help.
