Serious? Send up? Either way, it works........2000-11-21

It could be that Ben Melnick's woe-is-me (and you too) lyrics are a send-up of the genre, or maybe the guy's got a lot of woe on his hands. Regardless, this 5-song gem beautifully captures early '90s San Francisco, when everywhere you turned there was a REALLY GOOD BAND to listen to. Pounding Birds was one of the best. Their departure from the scene is long lamented. Hopefully Ben has cheered up by now.

Pimple Poppin' Good.......2000-01-29

One word: whoah. Buy it. Like yesterday. Right up there with the Liberaci X-mas album. And if you own that, you know this is like way too groovy to pass up.

Morrisey meets Derrida meets the Junkyard Dog.......2000-01-28

This album is hilarious and nobody seems to get it - this send-up of early 90s romantic morbidity is dead-on brilliant. It's the musical equivalent of Chillida. "Tear Something Down" is songwriter Melnick pissing on the marble floors of L'Ecole Normale; "Another Coat of Paint" mixes turpentine in your bowl of Cheerios.
