VINYL FORMAT. Repress of this 2004 album, now in full printed cover. Obviously, both of Kimya Dawson's solo albums are highly recommended to fans of the Moldy Peaches, but don't expect sex and drug jokes, these albums are more serious, transcending the novelty and humor of the Peaches. Embracing nostalgia, meloncholly and sincerity, Kimya proves to be as unique as she is brilliant, creating two albums both compelling and charasmatic. My Cute Fiend Sweet Princess is an instant Anti-Folk classic.
