Super Relax EP

EW's GRADE
B+

Details Lead Performance: Cibo Matto

With its extra-funky remixes courtesy of the Beastie Boys and English DJ duo Coldcut, a hyperactive live tune, two tracks performed with a full rock band, and Rolling Stones and Antonio Carlos Jobim covers, this supplement to last year's Viva! La Woman album is, to say the least, all over the place. But the super-wacky, sample-happy duo Cibo Matto pull it off, letting their art-as-party-music sensibility guide them through nine scattered tracks of serious fun on the Super Relax EP.
