Hyper-eclectic art pop. Zany, grovelly, at-times-dissonant-and-screechy vocals. Klezmer, circus, saloon sounds. Different instrumentation and style on each track, indeed within each track! Goofy lyrics and catchy ditties, cacophony and dissonance. FCC: 2. Best: 4, 8, 9.

1. Mid-tempo sad waltz, piano + vox.
2. FCC – one fuck. Starts silly, goes into oom-chunk klezmer/circus, weird lyrics.
3. Faster - accordion, percussion, funny western guitar breakdown, wavery vox.
*4. Cacophonous and frenetic, screeched vox. Dissonant, but makes you dance too!
5. Slow, sad, out-of-tune piano, violin, guitar, low male vox.
6. Up-tempo fun - one of the more eclectic tracks and super catchy.
7. Repeats the same ya-da-da/yat-da’s throughout.
*8. Wonky/weird vox, varied instrumentation, off-kilter dissonance and the BEST skronky vox sound in the middle. Great change-up with "moustache" repeated.
*9. More relaxed, downright goofy.
10. A more straight-forward track, a little bluesy and folksy.
11. Lots of changes: down tempo intro to skronky dissonance to rock to squeaky vox to free-er improv, then altogether!
12. 4-second scream/cry + door slam.
13. Swung grovelly vocals, muted trumpet, jazz flute – then switches to shoob-dee-doo section.
