The Archie Bronson Outfit are AWESOME. I first heard their 'tunes on a CMJ Music Marathon CD sampler in '06 and I've been waiting for the NUSHI from these dudes ever since... Fast (slow) forward to 2K10 & the UK trio finally have a new baby 'Coconuts', ready to pop out March 1st, via Domino Records. Let's be honest; you really need to study...
Go to iTunes, (now) and download 'Dart for My Sweetheart', 'Jab Jab', 'Cherry Lips' 'Butterflies' & 'The Wheel Rolls On'.
Oh, and watch these:

NUSHI: WU vs BEATLES
It's been tough to be fresh while sampling The Beatles since DangerMouse released the epic Grey Album in 2004... Here's a surprisingly effective combination of Wu-Tang acapellas & sampled source material initially authored by The Fab Four. UK Producer/Secondary School Music Teacher/Caregiver for adults with special needs' Tom Caruana, has avoided the obvious and delved into the deep waters of eclectic Beatles cover records and concocted some very nice beats here on this 27 (!) track LP. Of particular greatness is his work with Inspectah Deck on 'Forget Me Not', and Ghostface on Supreme Clientele's 'Mighty Healthy'. Tom's new verse = new beat on 'UZI (Pinky Ring)' is also very impressive. The entire album is available for download in many formats at bandcamp.com, so head here to give the album a listen and add it to your hard drive.
