Unleash the gritty allure of Mike Pope's Ripening (Ain't It Strange), an electric statement from the San Diego underground, released by Blind Owl Records. Drenched in mustard-colored vinyl, this record is a raucous departure from Pope's earlier folk musings, embodying the spirit of Dylan's controversial turn to electric in 1965.Crafted with producers Dude Cervantes and Jordan Andreen, the album presents a visceral rock 'n' roll experience. Pope's transformation into electric vigor echoes through tracks that are emboldened with the energy akin to Joe Strummer's raw edges and the quirkiness of early Talking Heads. Each song serpentines into the next, driven by open-tuning guitar work and Pope’s storytelling prowess. The camaraderie of his band infuses these compositions with a palpable intensity and defiant spirit.
This mustard-colored gem shifts sonically with nods to the ruggedness of Neil Young and the psychedelic twist of Mdou Moctar’s influences, electric guitars reverberating through echoplex effects. It's a record that eschews ornate folk for a sound as bristling as Big Star’s heyday, brazenly tossing any preconceived notions out the proverbial window.
Ripening (Ain't It Strange) is not just an album; it's an electric odyssey. For ardent vinyl aficionados and collectors of Blind Owl's "100% Certified Analog" series, this masterpiece stands as a beacon of Pope’s adventurous artistry and remarkable adaptability, promising a sonic experience that'll resonate with daring rebels of rock history.

Best frother ever!
Color: Black
I’ve had this frother for over a year now and it’s by far the best I’ve ever had. I purchased others in the past and they would not hold charge or end up not working after a while, but this one holds a charge forever and has lasted well over a year. It’s easy to use and powerful. Highly recommend!

The best frother I ever had
Color: White
I have been using frothers to make a daily matcha latte since 2016 and, since each of them lasted only between 4 to 12 months, I had purchased many of them.
This one is absolutely the best one! I bought it in July 2025 and I surely hope this will last more than one year. I will update my review if it stops working too soon.
But , for now, it has been great! I totally love the strong, fast engine. It perfectly whips up my matcha latte in just 3-4 seconds! As I use a very tall cup, I never experienced any overflowing of the liquid.
It feels heavy and stronger than my previous one, and I like that.
The reason I took off one star is because it doesn’t come with a metal stand considering that it is not possible to keep it standing up on the kitchen counter because, on the top, it has a robber cover that it is not flat. I am using an old stand from one of the previous frothers but, as this frother is much heavier, it keeps falling down. It would be nice to have a stand that fits this frother!
Other than that, so far, it is the best frother I have ever had!

Really powerful, responsive customer support
Color: Blue
Awesome for mixing protein powder into milk, Gatorade powder into water, making salad dressings, basically the kinds of work that would be overkill for an immersion blender. The unit I got started to vibrate like crazy after a few weeks. Contacted support and they said it was likely that the whisk rod was bent and said they'd refund me the cost of a new rod. We'll see if that solves the problem, but overall, I am impressed by their product and aftersales support.
