The $6.99 price tag on The Polyphonic Spree's "The Beginning Stages
Of...." at Best Buy was THE ONLY reason I purchased it. Would have never
bought it otherwise. Just browsing when I came across the sale notifier in
regular stock. By the way, great orchestral/choral pop, but I could do
without that 36 min snoozer of a closer. That's OK, it being the last track
of a 10 song disc, I hit 'stop' after track 9 finishes.

NP: Dengue Fever - incredible debut (?) with 60's flavored Cambodian pop. I
have no clue what the female singer is singing, but I love the disc
nonetheless. I'm thinking this would be right up Brian Kassan's alley!
