UPDATE: He's been found and is OK.

mobile LJ

I think I would like the mobile version of LJ if it didn't break up comment threads into really, really short pages. As it is, that keeps driving me back to the full version even on my phone.

Do you surmise it's wise to have laser beams emitting from your eyes?

After listening to Join Us a bit more:

The funky horn breaks from TMBG's "The Lady And The Tiger" have been earworming me all day long.

There's been this pattern over the past several years, in which the band is clearly capable of the same degree of astonishing strangeness that they maintained in their early albums, but they'd mostly show it in places other than the albums. The magic would be there in the live shows and podcasts, and in the rarities collections, supplementary EPs and bonus discs (even John Flansburgh says The Spine Surfs Alone was better than The Spine), and in the themed side projects like Venue Songs. But on the post-2000 adult rock albums, as great as they often were, it always seemed like they were holding back the geeky freakery just a little, like they were trying not to be a novelty act and there was a bid for rock respectability in play. On the kids' albums they loosened up more.

With Join Us they just said the hell with it and put it all in the album, and as a result I think it may be their best album since Flood. Maybe after making some money on children's music they don't have anything to prove.

"Three Might Be Duende" needs to have fanart.
