BA's "My Gay Estranged Father" is a tour-de-force in avant-garde pop, not for the faint of heart. Weird? Yes. Infectious? No question. Witty? Certainly. Insightful? Check. Provocative? You bet. Tracks like "You and Whose Army" and "Smart Bar" contain searing commentary in impossibly good freak-show arrangements. If Leonard Cohen dipped his balls in They Might Be Giants' tea kettle, this is what you'd hear. Get baked and check out the heavy-metal-style lyrics set to country musical backing on "Champaign Song," and then freak out to "Mr. Nite-Nite Man." It's beyond the beyond.
