Editorial Reviews:

Album Description
Secret Diary is where all the Girl Talk fun begins! "John Oswald-ian reconfiguring of pop, glitched out, cut and pasted bits of Joan Osborne and Jay-Z that fly past in a blur, Secret Diary runs the gamut from full-out songs of pilfered parts combined in a patchwork matter to Olivia Tremor Control-ish noise collages." - FAKEJAZZ

4 out of 5 stars bitches need to stop hatin so much   October 29, 2008

Seriously, he is a highly experimental artist, who can blame him for his first album not being up to par to his flawless last couple albums. Of COUSE Night Ripper is better, but I like him letting his glitch side go off for a bit. You can tell his skills are not what they are now, but if you can get past the lack of melody, you have to respect this album. It was made before he was famous and it lead him into his present endeavors. The whole point is that it is not a fluid work, but choppy and experimental. Take it for what it is, don't say it sucks because it is not the same thing you initially fell in love with.

You too can make a CD just like this. Take any good musical CD and then whack it with a hammer a few times, drag a screwdriver over the surface, take a knife and cut deep grooves into the vinyl, and then play it. Your new creation will sound JUST LIKE this CD.


1 out of 5 stars This CD is trash   July 18, 2008

Like all others before me I will say that the other ablums are good, and "Feed the Animals" is classic and brilliant, but this CD is absolute trash. I think a 5 year old with a computer could make a better album. It literally hurt my ears. I just hope others will take the review seriously and not get this album, it is straight up wrong.


1 out of 5 stars Do not buy this CD   December 20, 2007

I skimmed over the other reviews before buying this, saying how good Girl Talk's other CD's were, and how bad this was. I figured, it could not possibly be as bad as what some are saying. After listening to it, I can't imagine any record label putting this out. It is un-listenable. Do not buy this unless you really can't believe the reviews without hearing it for yourself. This CD is a joke.

...the noise. I hope Greg comes out with another just like it only more songs. Bring on the mix (Night Ripper), bring on the glitch (Unstoppable), and bring on the noise (Secret Diary)! He does it all...SO SO SO SO well!
