Mr Oizo* – Lambs Anger

Desperate for a re-press of this. Words words words words.

Does anybody know if there is plans of including the Itunes/Spotify Bonus Track Lamb's Garbage on any physical releases?

My mould code is 1258, everything else matches this release.

I wasn't jamming but I could hear some solid beats. But from time to time, I felt like there was missing some oompf. Many song have great potential, but feel like they keep lingering for too long. I can see why this album for some is a great jam-session, but for me it was a mediocre experience. I would give it a 5/10, but that translates to 2/5 with this star rating.

The album had a digital release in 2008? Was it on bleep.com?

An absolute clusterfuck of strange and fantastic sounds. This album is not simply an album, It's an experience. Truly one of the greatest albums ever made!

Can any owners of this original 2008 pressing confirm that the first LP is free from sibilance?

My copy of the 2015 reissue (Lambs Anger), and that of another owner, contain unbearable sibilance throughout all of the vocal tracks (and even some of the hi-hats in general) on the first record.

It's seriously bad, unliSSSStenable in fact.

The 2nd record has some sibilance too, but nowhere near as harsh as on the first.

Anybody getting some really nasty distortion on the sibilant Ss on some of the tracks with vocals?

'Lambs Anger' is an absorbingly fun and exhilarating album. Contained within are solid, hard, over-compressed, in-your-face dance tracks. It's bizarre and unique mix of elements reminiscent of old skool, hard techno, mixed with the quirk in dance music the French are famous for, and some funk, and some batshit weird experimental noise.

The somewhat down-tempo and askew rhythms make these tracks slam in an undeniably bad-ass way - you'll be bobbing your head and pumping your fist wherever you listen to this. Tracks are over-compressed to perfection, the rhythms ducking the rest of the track to gel into a funky, flowing mass. Yet this has been achieved without the obnoxious hyper-loudness-maximizing going on in most records right now. It's loud, but very listenable and not ear-straining - an impressive effort Mr Oizo!

'Two Takes It' is a brilliant tongue-in-cheek answer to 'It Takes Two' (perhaps a 20 year celebration of the classic track?) 'Bruce Willis Is Dead' will have you digging out your baggy pants and searching for a glostick, 'Jo' will get you disco boogieing with your partner in the living room - such are the elements that have been thrown into the pot here by Mr Oizo to produce an hot-damn acid meltdown. Awesome!
