the new viagra

Thursday 30 April 2009


Lyrically, Tiga sounds like a whining bitch that can't find his bot-bot.
Visually, he looks like a slick, Greek version of Jack from Will & Grace. Such a poser.
Musically, Tiga knows that people are listening to him when they're on it, when they're hella-drunk and when they're mating. It's almost a sense of we need to hear Tiga, like we need Viagra for round 3.

His playful new album Ciao! ticks all the boxes we got from the Juno Award winning Sexor. There's the dirty-dancing numbers "What You Need" and "Beep-Beep-Beep". There's electro-pop spinners like "Shoes". At times it borders on corny but, and a very big but, there's a new dimension to this little Canadian leprechaun. He shows us a tender, introspective side on the synth-laden "Gentle Giant" and multi-layered "Love Don't Dance Here Anymore".

The Electroclash master has collab'd with Soulwax and Gonzales on this record and you can definitely hear the rocky mountains here - so much artistic variation between these tracks - compared to the uniform sound of his debut.

Here's a sweet Mr Oizo remix of "Shoes". Love the original, and this is a light-hearted, jittering take on it.

The Proxy have just turned "What You Need", a lesson in distortion and tongue-in-cheek, into a nymph of a remix. It's got a sexy build-up, and how good is the Apocalypse audio filter effect in the original?

First off all I would like to thank you for that great post. It's very interesting to read your posts. As I can see, a lot of people here knows much about ED treatment maybe they can help me. For a long time I can't decide what is better: to buy viagra, to buy cialis or levitra? I found this online pharmacy no prescription to buy all this things, so can somebody help me to make a decision? IMHO I should buy viagra
