So this new Beirut album...I'm kinda on the fence with it. Not because the music is questionable but more because I wish there was more of it. Here is a 2-cd release with each disc ringing in at about 20-some minutes. Overkill in packaging. The first disc is dedicated to Band Jimenez and Zach Condon's recordings in Oaxaca. They are splendid and completely in step with his last 2 releases.

Realpeople Holland, the second disc is much different, and really where I personally would've hoped for more material. Mixing gentle electronic ambience with Zach's vocals is a win. In particular, the track "Venice" is amazing. Its like Air backing up Condon. Simply magnificent.

this just shot up my "most anticipated" list:

[img][525:525]http://assets1.pitchforkmedia.com/images/original/149571.jarviscocv.jpg[/img]

pitchfork Wrote:
While visiting the Windy City, Jarvis and his band holed up in Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studio to test out a couple new songs. They liked the sound (and the price: "it was very cheap," says Cocker in a statement), so the crew returned in January to record Further Complications, due out May 19 (May 18 in the UK) on Rough Trade.

Though Jarvis claims he hasn't "gone rock," hard-nosed studio rat Albini seems like a fitting choice for the album, considering the increasingly roughed-up tunes Cocker has been peddling since parting with Pulp. Don't expect any of those We Love Life Scott Walker strings here. Do expect some songs he debuted on tour last year, like the incredible soul number "I Told You Twice (Leftovers)", "Angela", "Fuckingsong", and the title track.

More track titles with priceless notes from Jarvis himself: "Slush" ("I guess that slush will be the ultimate outcome of global warming"), "Caucasian Blues" ("an attempt to understand the pain of a man whose Honda Goldwing has run out of petrol"), "I Never Said I Was Deep" ("the phrase that I would like carved on my tombstone"), "The Night They Let Me Out of the Home" ("portrays the difficulties of using public transport whilst on crutches"), and "Homewrecker!" ("an absolute racket featuring saxophone from Steve Mackey [he played on The Stooges' 'Funhouse', you know]"). If there was a Grammy for song-explaining notes, Jarvis would win every time.

if they charged double disc prices for essentially on album's worth of material it'd be a crime
