Lambs Anger is the third album by Mr. Oizo. Although this album contains many of Mr. Oizo's trademark avant-garde elements, it also has many elements of Electro and French House not previously heard in his albums, most notably French electro-rapper Uffie's guest track, "Steroids". The first single off of the album is "Positif", which was released three days after the album's release and has gotten support from a wide variety of DJs, including Flying Lotus and D.I.M. Unlike Analog Worms Attack and Moustache (Half a Scissor), the album is composed of many dance tracks suited for a club environment.
The album cover pays homage to the 1928 surrealist film "Un Chien Andalou", where in place of Simone Mareuil is a puppet named Flat Eric, a mascot commonly associated with Mr. Oizo.
This record marked a change in Mr. Oizo's style.
This album has received mixed reviews, with Pitchfork Media and PopMatters especially disliking it.
The album was released in France on 17 November 2008 and in America on 26 January 2009.
