Vitapup, [An Hour With Vitapup], Candy-Ass/Plump

A Saturn-ring rock-solid masterpiece. Ray, Melissa (Team Dresch) and Greg have this funk-punk-hop thing going all across the train tracks, and the city and planets are all in alignment every time the needle hits the record. One of my favorite recordings, period - this shiny song leads into that one, and the overall vibe is angry and thoughtful yet hopeful and proud. I want to meet Ray and Jane Hoenberger (who flows absolute on a couple of tracks) and simply shake their hand once twice three times, thanking for the truth and inspiration. Vitapup requires our attention.
