“The Waffle Song” boasts, “I chose not to be awful today”—such a great refrain and sentiment that we can all get behind. Not always an easy achievement, and we hear the authenticity of singer Tara Thiessen of Brooklyn-based art punk act Tea Eater. The sophomore album, I Don't Believe in Bad Luck, features tracks "Cecelia" and "Little White Dog (in a Gated Community)." Kim Gordon is the first reference singer for comparison, and similar to Sonic Youth, the material is spacey, noisy, shrill, and badass. Kudos are due for considering the whole package, as a limited-edition tarot deck is a brilliant add-on to accompany the release (as well as a recipe for cayenne-laced waffles).
