Santogold - Santogold

Cool Jerk popped ISSG's cherry already, so as usual, I guess I'll just slide my contribution into the horrible gaping, leathery, um... never mind.

Sparkling wine for everyone! Cheers!

I recently picked up this album and was very impressed by it. A refreshing genre-hop between reggae, dub, punk, new wave and badass. Needless to say, a mixed bag of music here.

1. L.E.S. Artistes
2. You'll Find a Way
3. Shove It
4. Say Aha
5. Creator
6. My Superman
7. Lights Out
8. Starstruck
9. Unstoppable
10. I'm a Lady
11. Anne
12. You'll Find a Way (Switch and Sinden Remix)

Admittedly, the album looses a little steam by the end, but easily makes up for it by kicking serious ass for the first two thirds. "Creator" is definitely the thunder-stealer of the album. A very very sexy dancehall-y tune. I dare you to try not get sexy to that tune. That having been said though, it's tough to pick a favorite from such a diverse cornucopia of musical style.

Enjoy, and until next time
