That’s some album cover, huh?
Girl Talk’s new album, Feed The Animals, is out today and much like Radiohead and Trent Reznor’s latest releases, it’s a “pay what you want” situation where you name your price to download the music.
If you’ve never heard of Girl Talk before, go ahead and pay the $0.00 to download Feed The Animals because it’s going to be the soundtrack to your next party. It’s the art of mashups taken to a new apogee. There’s over a hundred sampled artists/songs throughout the 14 song album. Along with being an achievement in music composition, it’s also kinda fun just trying to name all the songs you know. Trust me, hearing Kelly Clarkson’s Since U Been Gone matched with Nine Inch Nails’ Wish going into Radiohead’s 15 Step vs. Blackstreet’s No Diggity is something that is mindblowing.
For the legions of Girl Talk fans already out there, there’s some goodies for you if you hit some donation goals. According to the Stereogum comments:
any price grants the download of the entire album as high-quality 320kbps mp3s
$5 or more adds the options of FLAC files, plus a one-file seamless mix of the album
$10 or more includes all of the above + a packaged CD (when it becomes available)
