Labelmate co-fuckery abounds on this incestuous EP. The Octopus Project remix the hell out of Black Lipstick's wayward street prose stylings, resulting in music that is at once unbelievably unique, confounding, aggravating and addictive. Kudos for the visceral thrills.

The rundown: seven tracks, representing five songs, two of which are remixed repeatedly. That honor goes to "Hot Sinners", which is reformed as an analog hothouse of biblically Gomorrah-like proportions in "Hot Summers", a too-cool-for-school Casiotone wet dream in "Haute Sinners", and the penultimate track, which we'll get to in a minute. Other chicanery includes some sprightly electro-goth on "Excessories (1.5" Rims)", a ruddy disco-garagey bonus track called "Funky Soldiers" from the recording session for Black Lipstick's Converted Thieves, and "A Bee Sack", in which the laconic Black Lipstick vocals are hacked into monosyllabic morsels and strung together in a Babel-on-Ritalin fashion over a backing track that could easily double as Donkey Kong's favorite porn.

The most noteworthy moment of all comes on the closer, a bare bones deconstruction of "Hot Sinners" that consists of a solitary bassline, a relentless drumbeat, a pair of alternating three-note piano pieces and the title phrase. This cut repeats as such, interminably, for most of the rest of your life. Seriously. I was driving home from work and, after a minute of this, I realized I was in for one of "those" tracks. I decided to stick it out. All the way home: "Hot Sinners". The whole way to the office the next day: "Hot Sinners". I drove to a friend's house to watch the football game: "Hot Sinners". Picked up another friend for coffee afterwards: "Hot Sinners". She, after three minutes of this, was ready to fast-forward, but I would have none of it. I'd made it this far; I needed to see it through to completion. Finally, after I'd dropped her off, post-coffee, the track came to an end. Total runtime: 54 minutes and 28 seconds.

I just looked at the track title a few seconds ago: "Stop Listening and You Are a Quitter".
