This week we’re discussing every album by CocoRosie. Made up of sisters Sierra and Bianca Casady, CocoRosie combines elements of folk, hip hop, and psychedelia to form a style that Mike and Alex absolutely do not like. If you dig the episodes where we’re annoyed the whole time, look no further. (This band still put out at least one incredible record that we totally give it up for.)

Episode 8: Simon & Garfunkel
Alex comes into this episode guns blazing over his irrational and fervent hatred for Simon & Garfunkel. He hates them so much that he surprises Mike with an entire parody song written by him and performed by fellow friend and musician Casey Hanson. There isn’t a moment on this episode where Mike and Alex see eye to eye and it’s wonderful.
Closing song: “Richard Cory” from Sounds of Silence (1966)
Mike’s Picks:
Bridge over Troubled Water (1970) — Best Album, Personal Favorite
Bookends (1968) — Worst Album, Personal Worst
Alex’s Picks:
Bookends (1968) — Best Album, Personal Favorite
Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M. (1964) — Worst Album, Personal Worst
