S‐E‐X‐X‐Y

They Might Be Giants

A mid-nineties pivot into disco-funk and polished synth-pop. Quirky, bass-heavy, and surprisingly danceable while maintaining a signature intellectual wit.

1996 · Elektra

Find on Amazon

A clever, high-energy flirtation with dance-pop that masks its nerdiness with heavy grooves.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The unexpected disco-funk bassline that kicks in during the title track, signaling a sharp pivot from their usual accordion-led sound.
