Funny, melodic, sarcastic, intelligent.

The opening track, "bad woman #5", goes 'you get points just for [staying] alive', and the whole CD has that angle: that you're in this for the long haul and life isn't so bad if you have a sense of humor. Reminds me a bit of the Pixies, They Might Be Giants, Cake, and that one satirical white boy rap song on the radio whose title I can't remember right now. Funny, melodic, sarcastic, intelligent. Wouldn't want to be in an elevator with it for too long, but I like this stuff. [Issue 22, July-August 2004: not a starred review]
