mp3 :: Captain Ahab > I Don’t Have A Dick

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Captain Ahab‘s new album The End Of Irony was released earlier this week via Deathbomb Arc. Now each version of album is slightly different, but don’t worry, you only need one copy of The End Of Irony, just choose your favorite format (though you should probably consider the vinyl if only for the art).

Captain Ahab make mutant dance music that is extreme… extremely compelling, extremely bizarre, extremely grating (and also extremely funny).

This is the soundtrack to the Apocalypse. Listen.
