TZU are back. The Melbourne quartet that delivered one of 2004's most acclaimed Australian hip-hop albums 'Position Correction' return with a monstruos sophomore album 'Smiling at Strangers'. Produced by Magoo (Regurgitator / Butterfingers), it is a quantum leap for the band. Is it hip-hop? Well, they still rap. But this time round the journey includes live bass, guitars and drums on almost every track, plus lashings of pumping horns and glorious strings. You will, at various times, be hitch-hiking on a dusty country highway (Raise Em Up), having flashbacks to raves in the hinterland (Coming Down), crusing da streets Shaft-stylee (lead single She Gets Up), and of course, standing in the midst of a mass anti-government rally (Recoil).
