Fila Brazillia - Dicks

So damn fresh, so damn funky, so damn trippy! This Fila album grows on me like a sneaking, snaking vine every time I listen to it. Music for Mensa intellects - listen to the finely woven layers of bittersweet sounds!

Tracks of shining colors:

02. Sidearms & Parsnips - I hear the UK!
03. Shellac - Like something out of a 70's kid's show.
04. D'Avros - Sounds like mobster birds.
05. The Great Attractor - Soooomedayyy, we'll be togeeeeeeeeether! Yes we will, yes we will.
06. Kiss My Whippet - A tripping hillbilly?
07. Ballon - I don't think they mean the French word for balloon, it sounds more like thought processes going through a series of flasks in a lab.
08. Lullaby Berkowitz - Perhaps my favorite track, soothing music for busy Jewish lawyers.
09. The Cubist News - Fantastic! Chinese/English folk song hybrid mash-up? Amazing, hard to describe.
10. Goggle Box - Upbeat, squiggly and quirky - nice dance tune.
12. Doggin' - Quite possibly what Scooby Doo would be thinking if he took a trip to space. Laika, anyone?
18. Firball Shindig - Sounds exactly as it looks, cool cats groovin' to an almost gospel sound - that is, before the Mexican-sounding brass kicks in. Weird.

Overall, a fantastic listen. A sin if overlooked by Fila fans.

The album title 'Dicks' refers to the french word for '10': dix. For your information: this is Fila's Brazillia's 10th album in as many years. Dicks is filled with 23 leftovers from the Phoebus Brumal sessions. With all the loose ideas stuffed in this record alone, Fila Brazillia could go on at least another 10 years! Recommended listening.
