His albums are filled with slow monotone vocals with overlapping guitars and analog synthscapes. His songs are very catchy with playful lyrics that reference everything from robots, vampires, and aliens to the nostalgic things we grew up with in the 80\u2019s. The lyrics are more silly than clever but you\u2019ll catch yourself singing along. Looking at my itunes play count, I\u2019ve played the song \u201cLaundry\u201d well over 50 times this week. <\/p>\n<p>I was bummed he didn\u2019t play that song live but he worked in some oldies into his new set. It was kind of strange to see this \u201cband\u201d live which was basically Eric on guitar and a girl fiddling around a Korg machine. Although his music isn\u2019t necessarily the type of music you\u2019d get excited to see live, it\u2019s still fun. You\u2019ll feel guilty admitting to like this geeky pop, but I\u2019m ok with it and so should you.<\/p>\n<p><img SRC=\"http:\/\/doublehalo.com\/blogmedia\/2005\/05\/sayhitoyourmom2.jpg\" width=\"299\" height=\"213\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/sayhitoyourmom.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">sayhitoyourmom.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/doublehalo.com\/blogmedia\/2005\/05\/SayHiToYourMom_Laundry.mp3\" target=\"_blank\">Laundry.mp3<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Say Hi To Your Mom is Eric Elbogen and he makes quirky bedroom pop songs on his home computer in Brooklyn.
