Album Notes & Community Reviews

Collaborating with a wildly diverse roster of producers, including Morcheeba and Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh, the former Talking Heads frontman delivers a brilliantly quirky, highly eclectic solo effort. The album's playful, deeply sarcastic pop sensibilities are perfectly married to stuttering electronic breakbeats, lush orchestrations, and his unmistakably jittery, anxious vocal delivery.
