I feel as if I'm a pretty late comer to the naughtily-monikered F*ck Buttons, but I'm glad I've got there at last. Like much on their two albums to date, Space Mountain is astonishing stuff - like a more aggressive, visceral Boards Of Canada, if that isn't doing both acts a disservice.
Other than that, this time around there's a double helping of veteran Japanese punk-poppers Shonen Knife (28 years and still going strong!); French hip-hop; Norwegian pronk; Cardiacs-obsessed circus indiepunks; the cutest Americans ever; and a boat full of robots playing Baroque music.

Oh yes, and something to test fans of Soundgarden for a sense of humour...
