Here is what the Spin article says........


Tune in, turn on, freak out:  Kentucky's bearded ones return with two new members for more raise-your-pabst-can classic rock, slow-moaned ballads, and.......a circus waltz about a baby in a blender?  "We were all doing massive amounts of psychedelic drugs," says singer Jim James.  Speaking of drugs........: "We called the record Z because it's the 26th letter of the alphabet, it can easily be bent into the shape of a triangle, and if you knock one of its legs off, it turns into a seven." Southern Comfort:  The quintet have added roller-rink keyboards and '60s-inspired slolw-dance numbers to thier country rock, while James increasingly relies on yee-aaahhs and whoa-oohs.  "I'm kind of shy, and I don't really know what to say in a lot of situations.  So sometimes I just howl"

I told you there was an awesome reason for naming the album Z, and now you have three, I'm sure there are even more to come.  I think next time a journalist ask's Jim, "Why Z?" He should just respond........................"Exactly!"
There's Still Time.........
