Yep! With utmost respect to Irene's superb taste, I have to agree with Peter Becker here about National Hijinx. Lovely lovely album, very dark and nothing dull at any point. The last track, "the darg frog", has the most inspired sample - from Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring"... it annoys me slightly because I wait and wait for it to go on to the next bit in the Rite, but it doesn't. Once one gets over teh change of context, it works beautifully though!
