Fiery Furnaces

I just picked up Blueberry Boat. Definitely not run of the mill rock. I think this is one of those things I'll have to listen to at work or when everyone else is out of the house. It's sort of like an avant gard rock musical. I really like it, but I don't think it'll go over too well with the staid folks in my house.

I've listened to the CD and tried to like it. No dice, though. To me, it sounds like they're being weird just for the sake of being weird.

Well, that's kind of true. But it sort of sounds like a musical and I like musicals so it's grown on me. Definitely, this is not everyone's cup of tea. I'd heard one song from their first album, which I liked a bunch. None on this cd sound remotely like that song.
