Pansy Division -- Total Entertainment!
Everyone's favorite queercore punks are back -- Not especially novel musically, sort of like a gay Mr. T. Experience, but it's really catchy and fun, especially track 8, which uses alpine skiing metaphors to describe gay sex and track 16, which is an epic-length song (12:00) about going to the mall. Track 14 has mucho FCCs but is so great ("You kicked my ass in tennis, I fucked your ass in bed"). Some songs are more poppy, some pop-punk, some more rockin.
PICS: 8, 4, 9, 16 FCC: 14,16 (at very end)
1. pop-punk anthem, good drum beats, about
2. 60s style rocker
3. sensitive punk rock, relationship drama
4. pop-punk, catchy
5. poppy, somewhat bland
6. slower, lament, sad punk ballad, doesn't quite work
7. 80s electro-pop style, about unprotected sex
8. great!! about gay sex using skiing metaphors
9. short, punk-rockin
10. goofy pop, with up-beats
11.pop-punk, about rejection, cheesy guitar solo
12. sweet, mid-tempo pop-song, heatbreak
13. loneliness, somewhat new-wave-y pop
14. FCCs, but great punkabilly song about gay sex and tennis
15. longer pop-punk (5:00)
16. long (12:00) unlisted track about malls/consumerism -- FCC at very end
