Neko Case – Middle Cyclone

“Middle Cyclone” is one of my favorite albums to be released in 2009 so far. Aside from her normal sultry vocals, the album has awesome cover art, an orchestra composed of rescued craigslist pianos, a couple cover tunes, and a big “fuck you” to illegal downloaders in the form of a 30 minute track of frogs and crickets.

Never Turn Your Back On Mother Earth (cover of the Sparks‘ 1974 single):

Cougar on cougar action!

OH yea…..as in Neko Case’s album cover. That’s a 1967 Mercury Cougar and a 1970 Cougar. UPDATE: I learned today that the car is actually hers. She’s so cool.

Neko is cool.

My love affair with this one continues……here she rips on guys who wear skinny jeans…..and then sings “Star Witness”.
