Night Ripper is the third album by Girl Talk. It was released on Illegal Art in 2006 and re-released as a pay-what-you-want download on Illegal Art's website[1] in June 2009. It is composed almost entirely of samples taken from other artists' songs, with minor original material by Gillis. Gillis has stated that the album was created as one long piece of music and then subsequently broken into individual songs.[2]
