581. Soul Coughing - ruby vroom

This 1994 release sounds like, at times, a soundtrack to a late night cartoon... This debut is incredibly eclectic, pulling from so many influences and making it their own. Back when this was released nothing else came close in terms of originality and scope (okay maybe there was, like the Beasties Boys, Beck, et al.) - still it was a novel release during a somewhat stale period.
