Don't Think Twice, It's All Christ
Bob Dylan does a Christmas album ... "And it is awesome."
That's a direct quote from Chris Richards on Dylan's "bizarre and bewildering" album "Christmas in the Heart," out today. Read the full review.
Also reviewed in today's Post: Quick: "Blue Record" by metal band Baroness "injects an ineffable Southern indie-metal vibe into its groove"; "Embryonic" by shape-shifting weirdos the Flaming Lips is "an extravagantly difficult exercise in musical derangement"; R&B hearththrob Mario's "D.N.A." is "music made for sucking down plastic-bottle vodka and drunk-dialing your ex."
Think Dylan's off his rocker? Are the Lips even further off theirs? And can either compete with the insane, Bangladesh-produced backing beat to Mario's "Break Up?" Let us know what you think!
