Good solid album
author: Carl Bremer
Every catch yourself humming a song and wondering where you heard it? That happened to me with 'In the dark'. Some really solid lasting songs. 'Simple' and 'Frisco Man' were right up there in the top three for me. All his lyrics are packed with emotion and tight lyrics. Despite the name, this is a really great debut album.
Can't wait to hear the next one.

Give the lame name a chance and Poop Yer Pants' debut album is actually quite a trip. Head songwriter and performer Ken Adam creates dramatic, enjoyable folky pop songs heavily influenced by the likes of Pavement and Sparklehorse. This disc is filled with simple folk ballads, intense rock songs, and even a bit of electronic experimentation. The first part of the album is consumed with the more pop/rock material; "Reins" and the wonderfully intense "In The Dark" are clear-cut winners, each brandishing winning choruses and really nice dynamics. The Pavement-esque "Simple," meanwhile, could be the disc's "single." On the folkier end, "Frisco Man" and "Chester and Johnny" are immediate successes; these songs are a nice platform for Adam to prove his varied talent as a songwriter. The more electronic and unusual "Everglader" is a bit bland and self-indulgent, though "Dry Ice" is a relatively entertaining listen. As a whole, this disc marks the first chapter in Poop Yer Pants' promising career. I like what I'm hearing.
