Any you guys got this yet?

For those that like a bit of Filla you won't be disappointed with some nice vocal appearances as well.

Yep I got it last month. A good disk. However, Dave McSherry's (from Fila Brazillia) Mandrillus Sphynx "Ban Music" from last year is waaaaaay better.

Clips can be found here: http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/7740.html

I just listened to the clips, and it sounds far too much like "House". Filla Brazillia has a wonderful funkiness to them, and I don't hear enough of that here. There's nothing I hate more than brainless, metronomic rhythms. I would rather listen to bad Country music.

However, the synth sounds are cool, and I did enjoy "Pigeon's G-Spot".

Power-Funk yes, House no.

That's the way I found the album, and thought the clips would reflect that. It's still very tongue-in-cheek and parodies itself a number of times.

Thanks Andrew. I'll mention it to a friend of mine, who is a massive Filla Brazillia fan, and if I happen upon it in a record shop, I'll probably pick it up.
