They Might Be Giants - Nanobots

Vinyl LP pressing. 2013 release, the 16th album from the veteran Alt-Rock duo. The album was produced by Patrick Dillett and was recorded in Manhattan. Nanobots features 25 tracks, most of them being extremely short songs. The album features guest appearances from Stan Harrison, Jon Graboff, Mike Doughty, Jedediah Parish, and Chris Thompson. The artwork was designed by Paul Sahre and features a collage by Sam Weber, which uses an image of a painting of Princess Pauline-Eleonore de Broglie by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres.

"With their latest album, Nanobots, They Might Be Giants seems to come full circle to their third album, Flood. Comical commentary set to dreamy melodies is a trademark that they have applied to topics ranging from love to drone attacks. Happiness filled with irony keeps toes taping while at the same time managing to be thoughtful and kid friendly. Rarely not brilliant, all of this musical duo's talents, finely honed over the last 25-plus years, are on full display." — That Music Magazine
