Kiff – You Can’t Keep It Down / 2006 PeaceLabs / 11 Tracks / http://www.kiff.com / Aside from knowing that Kiff (spelled differently, I think) was the name of Zapf Brannigan’s second in command on Futurama, I had no idea what “You Can’t Keep It Down†was ultimately going to sound like.

Today they are finally recognized…
