The Books are awesome

I've been listening to "Lemon of Pink" by The Books. This album is great. It's a really calming and mellow mixture of electronica and instruments. There are interspersed vocals that are more about the way the sound of the voice mixes with the music, then it is about the lyrics. Thats something I really like, too many musicians put the emphasis on voice and don't use the rest of the instruments to their full potential.

I recently read an interview with Prefuse 73 and he mentioned a planned collaboration with the Books. Sounds neat.
