180g Audiophile Vinyl Double LP!
Numbered, Limited Edition Translucent Yellow Vinyl - 2,500 Copies!

The English-Irish electronic/dance duo Moloko released their first album Do You Like My Tight Sweater? in 1995. It's one of their most experimental records, before moving on to a more mainstream approach. Roisin Murphy carries the album with her versatile vocals, showcasing both range and style, while Mark Brydon creates the breakbeats, sound effects, and groovy disco lines. This is electronica at its best – danceable and funky. The album includes their hits ''Fun for Me'' (which was featured on the soundtrack for the 1997 film Batman and Robin) and ''Dominoid," along with fan favorites like ''Day for Night'' and ''Where Is the What If the What Is in Why?''

They never slow down in their exciting music and absurd lyrics, but that's exactly what makes this record unforgettable. It's pure joy to be danced to all night.

Do You Like My Tight Sweater? is available as a limited edition of 2,500 individually numbered copies on translucent yellow colored vinyl.

The aptly named Do You Like My Tight Sweater? slinks and bounces on a funky backbone of fat basslines and innovative beats that support singer Roisin Murphy's sly, theatrical vocals and lyrics. Part catwoman, part droid, her singing ranges from a knowing purr to an androgynous growl and creates characters like party weirdos, dominatrixes, killer bunnies, and ghosts. As dramatic as her vocals are, however, Murphy is an antidiva; her musical surroundings equal her singing in importance. The other half of Do You Like My Tight Sweater?'s individuality comes from Mark Brydon's arrangements, which combine fluid tempos, sudden breakbeats, witty sound effects, and unearthly keyboards in sci-fi grooves that appeal to the brain and body.
-Heather Phares, AllMusic, 4.5/5
