Very weird anti-folk/pop. Apparently, this is a movement that has been around for a few years. The music is chaotic, subversive, and dissonant. Weird vocals, big instrumental sounds, big riffs - irritating and funky at the same time. The bands saves their crazy music for instrumentals. Songs with vocals have a more standard song structure. This group has been compared to Zappa and Captain Beefheart. Anyone into this type of music will love this CD. FCC VIOLATIONS: DO NOT PLAY 5, 8. See 4, 14.

1. crash of many instruments - dissonant
2. more standard song structure - medium tempo without the big sound.
3. Asian-influenced instrumental - lasts less than 1 minute.
4. standard song structure - vocals sound like an echo behind it - good song - at time vocals are without music.
5. FCC VIOLATION - DO NOT PLAY
6. strong vocals, music driven by bass guitar and drums
7. sounds like different guitars playing different rhythms at moments throughout the song - instrumental selection
8. FCC VIOLATION - DO NOT PLAY
9. cacophony of instruments clear from the start - vocals unclear, more like moaning - more of an instrumental selection
10. sounds like an restructured Irish song
11. clash of instruments and vocals - instrumental selection
12. sounds like alternative punk
13. same as #11
