Flight of the Conchords' I Told You I Was Freaky is out today, an album with the added bonus of ready-made videos for each song already at your disposal. Here's a look at the album and the unique context from which the songs are born. While the first season of Flight of the Conchords was a cultural breakout* as far as comedies go, it was the second season where those kiwis Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement figured out how to better marry the songs [...]

It's hard to believe that it's nearing the end of October. This weekend I saw Christmas stuff out for the first time in force; at least they haven't started playing the music yet. As 2009 closes, there are still some releases to look forward to. This week, the Ben Gibbard/Jay ...
Nuovo episodio per il duo televisivo-musicale neozelandese. Autodefinitisi 'comedy duo' o band 'alternative hip hop', tra le altre cose, sfornano un disco simpatico, una specie di collezione di brani inediti ed altri apparsi nella loro serie televisiva nel corso della programmazione sul canale americano HBO. Non era difficile trasportare il carisma dei due in musica, e questo disco ne è un esempio, benché dal punto vista del contenuto sia difficile esplorarne modi e significati. Le basi da hip-hop di bassa lega sono senz'altro qualcosa che non giova al duo, che ci aveva deliziato in passato con ballate dal [...]

Since then they have gained huge success, winning a Grammy for their debut EP "Distant Future" and nominated for six awards at this years Emmys for the HBO series "The Flight Of The Conchords".

Flight Of The Conchords, everyone's favorite comedic Kiwi duo (right?), have a Grammy, a hit TV show and an Emmy nomination under their belts. So would you expect anything less than awesome from new album I Told You I Was Freaky? The record, out October 20 on Sub Pop, has all the hits from season [...]
Just when you think that commercial pop music couldn't get any more pretentious, preening or pathetically pompous, along comes Flight of the Conchords , that lovably goofy New Zealand duo that has basically de-pantsed, hilariously we might add, the stagnant and mindless beast known fondly as "the pop music industry." When their tale of a fledgling and hopelessly inept musical duo first aired on HBO, the Conchords' peculiar brand of folk/rock shenanigans had a brainy comic appeal that the poor saps at SNL could only dream of. But the Grammy winning Bret McKenzie (guitar and vocals) and Jemaine Clement [...]

"Too Much Time," from John Vanderslice's Romanian Names is one of my favorite tracks of the year, and I was pleased this week to see that he's released a demo of the song to gear up for the single's 73 release. The stripped down model of the dreamy contemplative track is on the playlist we're offering you today, and in about fifteen words I'm going to link up a vid of Vanderslice performing "Forest Knolls" with a full on orchestra just because every track on this album mystifies and stops me dead in my tracks. It's an arresting [...]
Always funny. Flight of The Conchords Sugalumps - Flight Of The Conchords From the forthcoming I Told You I Was Freaky Out October 20th on Sub Pop.
I Told You I Was Freaky, the sophomore album from Flight of the Conchords, might be the last piece of product we get from ol' Bret and Jemaine, which would not be a good thing (first Jay Leno gets a show, and now this? What has the world come to?). "Sugalumps" is a promotional single from the album, which features 15 tracks from season five in extended versions. "Sugalumps," a song about balls, benefits from the extension (penis pun totally not intended...sort of) as the ridiculous lines about ladies checking out the front of Bret and Jemaine's trunks get [...]
