Part children's cartoon, part career retrospective, What It Means to Be Left-Handed is the first Mice Parade album to be released in the band's second decade of existence. Diverging from the pop sensibilities of Mice Parade's most recent successes - Bem-Vinda Vontade and Mice Parade - it is a fresh adventure, all over the map and awash in color; splashes of West-African Highlife mingle with Flamenco, Brazilian Jazz, and the late '80s indie rock that band founder Adam Pierce was stuck on in high school.

Worth a listen
I like this, but I don't enjoy it quite as much as some of their other work - my favorites are Bem-Vinda Vontade and their self-titled album, though if I recall correctly, they're a little more instrumental/less vocally-oriented than this one.

One of my top 5 albums
One of my top 5 albums. All of the songs are so soothing yet complex. So excited to have this on vinyl.

a fantastic musical journey
never dull, fresh, dynamic instrumentals and great vocalists. I won't bore you with comparisons, just listen to the previews. Every song stands on it's own.

buy it
Usual Mice Prade high quality as you would expect, this time with a few indie-afrobeat numbers thrown in to mix up the jam.Reccomended.
