One time I went to a Red Lobster that had its lobster tank in the waiting area. Every so often, a person would come and grab one to throw in the cooking pot. About the third time this happened, it slipped out of the grabbers hand and landed on the floor. Someone nearby shouted, “Look out!” And there was a near panic with everyone shuffling away from the lobster – which in addition to being on land, had rubber bands around its claws. Me and the lobster grabber were the only ones who laughed.

I love this song because it tackles an issue that happens all the time in society, but all other bands won’t touch. Seriously, if you’re not here to have fun, beat it!

These guys should re-release this song now and act like it’s an anti-war protest jingle. They’d make a mint. It’s not like they dated it by saying the Ayatollah is an Assahola or anything like that.

Funk is a music fad that needs to come back. Even a shitty funk record will have a couple jams you’ll like, and I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t like it. Everyone feels the need to hate on some genre of music, but no one would cop a distaste for a funky bassline backed up with some brass.

This record is one just one big heartbreak, with each song tearing you apart in a different way. A great listen, but don’t dare put it on the turntable if you’ve just broken up with someone. You’ll have hanged yourself before the end of side one.

Holy crapola is Dianne Davidson an amazing singer! Even crazier, she produced and recorded this album herself when she was 19. Listen to this song and try to even fathom how a 19-year-old can earnestly sing with such gut-wrenching emotion. I thought 19-year-olds only worried about what the best brand of hair gel was.

Believe it or not, this is actually the most accessible and sensible song on the entire album. You’d expect anything less from a band whose guitarist is dressed like a mime? (Not a joke, he really is.)
