A very eclectic collection of songs put together by a very deranged musician in
his own bedroom. An electronic interpretation of an older 'They Might Be Giant'
albums with it's turbid lyrical style and bizarre panache. Some of the songs
are very catchy and I've caught myself humming the lyrics along with the songs
while other are simply nerve grating and mindless displays of inanity. One
thing does need to be mentioned is the artists has never had a single critique
of his music until this review so he has not had an outside opinion to consult
when developing his music. Instead he has remained in a vacuum, writing music
as a hobby in his free time. Ignoring the recording quality and the blatant
insanity of such songs as 'Chop Chop' and instead focusing on the remainder of
the demo, the artist definitely has a great deal of compositional skill that
has yet to be exhibited and with any luck and a great deal of work a concise
musical work might yet be created with a firm direction of sound instead of
this wild array of musical expression evident here.
