Benj and Jeremy Edwards are songwriters with the kind of fecundity you used to see in the [old] days.

Madcap Rock Opera - and then some!.......2005-06-27

This is really quite something. *something* being the key word, because, you see, this is not the easiest CD to describe. Basically what you need to know is this here is good musics indeed. Infact, you could say that these guys are coming into their own just as They Might be Giants appear to be struggling a bit. Which is handy.

Furthermore, every little bit of support for request-a-song.com represents a kick in the proverbials of the music establishment, as way they go about things is revolutionary.

There's stuff on this CD I didn't like when they were originally posted on the internet, but the remastering makes them go the distance.

Huzzah and Congratulations!

A Hilarious Breath of Fresh Air with Equally Great Music.......2005-06-14

The tracks encompass whitty lyrics and hilarious, quirky subject matter with musical composition of an equally high caliber that one might not usually associate with quote, "novelty songs"--a must- listen for anyone interested in being thoroughly entertained on every level.
