Released to little fanfare on a label previously known for experimental electronica, “Beautiful Seizure” is a serendipitous indie debut, even if few songs lend themselves to OC soundtracks and sobby mixtapes...

The few missteps on “Kicking Television” stem mostly from poor song selection. “Wishful Thinking,” while inoffensively boring on “A Ghost is Born,” fails to lend itself to the kind of dynamic re-invention that makes the other tracks so exciting.

This pattern is also alleged in the civil suit handed to Badian on Aug. 8 in his apartment in Austria--only this time the mark was pet-supplies company Pet Quarters, based in Lonoke...
