Friend and Foe

Menomena has been around for a few years and have a couple of solid albums under their belt. I have been a fan for a long time and I know that I say this a lot, but if you haven’t given these guys a chance you really need to. They are pure gold!

Menomena has a style all their own. You can see it in their album art, hear it in their music, see it on their website and in their music videos. They have a great mix of sound that is aided by some pretty cool looping software. Most of their music is kind of out there on the fringes but has just enough pop in it to be catchy and memorable. I love to listen to Menomena while I’m doing something that occupies the majority of my attention… there’s just something about the music that stimulates my brain.

Favorite songs include the entire Friend and Foe album and “E. Is Stable” from I AM the FUN BLAME MONSTER!

If you’re feeling daring and you don’t already have a headache, check out the band’s website:

Here’s “Rotten Hell” from Friend and Foe:

    If you buy this album do yourself a huge favor: Buy the physical CD! The layout and interplay between the sleeve and CD are incredible, definitely the coolest album art I have EVER seen. So please do not download from itunes, order from amazon, you will not regret it. Oh and the music is premium.
