An Album For the iPod Generation? was a top story for this week. Here it is again: (PR) Team Genius constructed their debut album specifically for the iPod generation, managing to channel both Prince and Magnetic Fields along the way. First single "Take Me Home" is a falsetto lovers dream. The self titled effort will be released on October 7th, 2008."I have been trying to go with my whims… fuck it, let's make an iPod album." This statement from Team Genius leader Drew Hermiller was the jumping off point in the creation of the band's debut full-length -- one of the most interesting and eclectic pop records of the year. "Basically it's a reaction to the modern way music is consumed and listened to," Drew says of the disc. "The idea of an album with a focused sound and a complete statement kind of gets lost now-a-days. Everyone shuffles around, so I thought 'why not write an album that does the same thing?' Luckily, the band did an awesome job of keeping up with it." - more on this story
