animalia


Sometimes it's hard to figure out who we are... what we are... why we are. Nothing makes sense, we're just... lost. It's in times like these that I find the simplicity of the primal of greatest comfort. In honor of that, this playlist is all about returning to the carnal... the thoughtless... the animal. 2009 has been so gracious as to offer up a menagerie of fauna to identify with. So give this record a spin, like the carousel at the fair, spot your favorite animal as it spins... follow it with your eye... and when the gate opens race to it and snatch it up and call it your own.
