No Traffic Drive to Work

Had a clear, traffic-empty drive to work this morning. Forgot it was a state holiday. Made for an enjoyable ride while listening to Alanis Morissette’s latest Flavors of Entanglement. Great stuff! 16 tracks of vintage angry Alanis and some new twists to keep things fresh.

Whenever I listen to the dark Tapes, I keep rewinding the song to hear it again. Classic Alanis. Giggling Again for No Reason shows a newer side to Alanis, featuring electronic dance, pop beats. This one is addicting to hear why Alanis is giggling again for no reason. Contrast this to the expletive-filled Straitjacket – “this $h!t is making me crazy!” Bonus track On the Tequila sounds like a shout out to the hip hop crowd expecting a cameo by Akon or T-Pain.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with Flavors of Entanglement, but it’s definitely a buy!
