...In the Belly of a Mountain."

Sounds good! Doesn't stray far from Linkous' usual style, so I don't see any fans being thrown for a loop or anything. There's a run of really good tunes starting with track 6 that stretches pretty much to the end; and I'll be damned if I can even tell where on here Dangermouse was involved (thank God). Can YSI in a bit.

Having the clown from Vivadixie sitting in the middle of that cover sort of throws me. Looks weird.

He's mining the same territory. Still, some great songs here.
The 10 minute instrumental title track that closes the record is outstanding. 3-4 note melody over & over w/added textures. This song in particular is something Dalen would like.

I've seen'em twice as well and they weren't very good live.

Anything as crazed and out-of-left-field as "Pig" (which I love to death)?

"Ghost In the Sky" is pretty close in style to "Pig," maybe not quite as out there, but a damn good song nonetheless.
