any of you pirates got it yet, and if so, is it as good as the title track would have us all believe?

The title track is the only thing I've heard and it kind of sucked.

i heard it on the radio and just played it in full straight away, but i guess that's the way with most Cat Power songs; great in their simplicity. Because i am no musician.

This is funny, because I generally HATE Cat Power, and I think that the new album is PHENOMENAL...

Yep. Same here. I've had zero interest in anything else that she's done, but this album really impressed me.

What do you all think of the artwork? I don't think I've ever seen such a boring and uninspired sleeve design.

Haven't had much time to listen to it much, but I really like the title track a bunch. The whole big room sound suits her in an oddly winsome way, compared with her more confrontational, bedroom vox approach from most of her previous work.

Not that I dislike the other stuff at all - it's just nice to hear her trying something else out.

I picture Anna-Lucia donning that necklace moments before hitting on J-Lo in a really crappy L-Word type bar.
