iTunes says the Deadboy CD came out in 2005. Allmusic shows two releases of the album - one in 2005 and one in 2006.

I don't really have a point. I just wanted to be pedantic.

Kosmo, I think we need to have a talk about you constantly disagreeing with me :D

Checkout Under the Influence of Giants, I'm sure we'll disagree on that one :)

Actually, the track I heard (don't recall the name) was fairly infectious. It was no "SexyBack" but it made me curious enough to listen.

When I'm not banging my head, I'm shaking my booty.

fantastic is an understatement. holy shit. i was standing like 10 feet away from her at iota, and she definitely made me feel kinda funny, like when we used to climb the rope in gym class.

the record is solid, if a bit samey.

Agreed. And I love everything else Grandaddy has put out, especially Sumday. But this album was a massive dissapointment.
I'm definately going to have to disagree with this. I absolutely love Fambly Cat, I really don't see how you could have been disappointed by it. Todd Zilla wasn't very good, though, I could understand if you were talking about that.
