This re-release of Flood by They Might Be Giants is the first cassette I’ve purchased in a quarter century.

I remember the first time I heard this album, where I was, who gave it to me, and how it affected me. I’d never heard anything like it. The music was strange and original, and the lyrics were weird and wonderful. I became a lifelong fan after a couple of listens. And tonight, three years after I purchased my tickets, I get to see them perform it live in its entirety.
