Various Artists - Fuckin Ziggurat

I suppose people listen to music for many reasons, but fun and discovery of new sounds are high on my list.  And if those are good reasons for your listening habit, you can't go wrong with Fuckin' Ziggurat, a 17-song compilation of bands from the US, UK, France, Ireland, Australia and, I expect, other places as well.  We get pop, punk, country, electronic-experimental and several other styles of music, all from excellent artists.  Several bands, including No Monster Club (Ireland), Wanda Junes (Arizona), and Ginnels (also Ireland), have been on these pages before.  Others, such as The Orchestre Murphy and The Plain People of England are new to us.  But we welcome the old and the new, and the sheer diversity and quality of the music.

The digital version of the album is a steal at $5.  But for a mere $11 you can get a CD and a very cool booklet with information about the artists and a few comic strips.
