[Sub Pop]
Rating: 8.1
Terrific poppy, punky boyrock with a side order of spaz. These kids know how to rock
and roll and make you laugh all at the same time. Catchy songs like "Henry Rollins
Is No Fun" and "I Wanna Hump You" are not only hysterical, but they have all the
staying power of stuff by Weezer and Jonny Polonsky.
The tunes on this record always have interesting story lines, too. "Where's Your
Mom?" is an involved story about a guy who wants his girlfriend to act more like her
mother. In fact, this record is chock full of references to Mom. Nearly every song
on the record makes mention of a mother. They're mom-obsessed. They love moms. What a
wacky gimmick.
Anyway, this is three cheers in my book. These guys rock my motherfucking house
down. You know.
