Has anyone else ever heard this? I can't remember how this came my way, but for the first year of owning it I didn't listen to it at all. I then popped it in, and it was unbelievable. Been on my top 20 list for 4-5 years now.

Damian Kulash did this record of variations on Elvis songs while a senior at Brown. He then moved out to Chicago and started OK Go. I didn't know this until today, of course.

The CD itself is crazy. The packaging is hand silkscreened and made out of recycled paper digipacks. It features MC Paul Barman and a number of other people. It was just a senior project Damian did at Brown but the sound quality is top notch. The songs range from hip-hop to Japanese folk song to punk and everything in between, all Elvis songs, all based off the originals (except the Paul Barman one that doesn't seem to reflect on the original at all).
