Far and away, Girl Talk's Feed the Animals is my favorite album this year. Good lord, he might be the coolest gentleman on the planet. Sure, he is a biochemist who used to leave on the weekend to DJ in Europe. He layers popular songs on top of each other and mixes and matches them to make cooler songs. Its like he is unravelling a knot of popular music and unleashing something better and more complicated. His list of samples is fabulous, everything from Tom Petty to Jay Z to Temple of the Dog. Great stuff, well done and high energy. Couldn't ask for anything more perfect in this era of music. Its a fuck you to the music industry.
