THE TIME DELAYED SALES TOOL

You'd bite too. I mean, look at that. That's art of the highest order right there. I mean it. That sleeve may have had to fester for several decades, but it has done its job. It made me want to hear the music that was in it. Isn't that what a picture sleeve is supposed to do? It sure doesn't hurt to have a ridiculous song title. These guys deserve a listen, no matter what they sound like, for assembling a crack marketing team.

SAY HEY MALAYSIA

Aw, what the hell. Thanks to some sort of stats widget that I rarely look at, I noticed among other things that Malaysia is in the house. I don't know how many people in Malaysia actually pass through here, but judging by the page views, it may very well be just one person trolling for freebies. Regardless, I thought I'd tip my hat inna Hee-Haw stylee ("Sal-ute!"), and post some Malaysian stuff. And when I'm looking for oddball international stuff, there's one place I always start, Radiodiffusion International. 

This little excursion paid for itself with the first two, a couple fuzz drenched quasi-surf instrumentals by Band De-Fictions (which you will note by the sleeve are in "stereomono", whatever the hell that is). The rest are almost as interesting as the sleeves (that's saying something), and there's quite a few of them over there. Some just have their moments (you'll have to check out "Cha-Cha Dracula", there's a vocal inflection at :53 that is universal in it's WTF-ness), but all are worthwhile if you're the sort of person who doesn't limit their listening to hipster jive.

Hey, if the person(s) from Malaysia that has been visiting here actually sees this, leave a comment and let us know what's hot shit over there nowadays. We're admittedly ignorant of any current Malaysian stuff.
