Songs That Suck
—
Jimmy Buffer is a pseudonym for a performer who once was a big-shit, up-and-coming rock-star-to-be and who decided to throw it all away in favor of making pretentious, semi-retarded electronic idiocy. His debut on Digital Vomit, Songs That Suck (complete with moronic vacuum cleaner interludes to hammer home the "suck" theme with all the subtlety of a Jenna Jameson film… also, note the use of the Electrolux vaccuum logo as the cover art) is a collection of odd outtakes and discarded experiments that "The Artist" deemed unacceptable for a traditional release.
Fortunately, DV, lacking any standards nor a modicum of quality control, is elated to offer up this collection of malformed audio. And, it might be added, it actually fucking rules.

- Pitchfork
"his music is all decoration and no substance"
- Brainwashed
"…has accidentally reinvented shoegazing with this beautifully evocative lo-fi debut. 4 stars."
- Uncut magazine
"9/10"
- NME
