Reviews



This is one of those albums that’s probably not for everyone. To determine if you are one of the people who is likely to enjoy this, please take the following simple test. Award yourself one point for every true statement. Your final score is what you would rate the album on a scale of 1 to 5. DO NOT DISPUTE THE SCORE. This test has been subjected to the scientific method, a litmus test, and some other stuff I learned in high school.

  1. I enjoy bands like Black Sabbath, the Melvins, and Queens of the Stone Age. (TRUE / FALSE)
  2. I own a copy of the Dungeon Master’s Guide. (TRUE / FALSE)
  3. I enjoy marijuana. (TRUE / FALSE)
  4. Comic books are cool. (TRUE / FALSE)
  5. I am a nerd. (TRUE / FALSE)
As it happens, I am a nerd. I enjoy the occasional comic book as well as the aforementioned bands. On the other hand, I sold my copy of the Dungeon Masters Guide on eBay a few years ago and haven’t smoked pot since high school. So I’ll give it a solid 3.

    Clearly you don't pass the test listed above. Myself - rating this album a 4, kinda dug the single. However, the video treatment is fantastic! The best part is where the band comes out of the water and the guy hands him the guitar. In the comic shop made me laugh too. I may check this album out!

    These guys have a real CKY sound to them as well. Who in turn sound similar to Sabbath, et al.

    amazing review. i saw this cd in the store the other day and almost bought it based on the band name alone. i passed, though it's apparently a 3-star album for me (even though i only occasionally enjoy the marijuana).

    This band should do a split with Bongzilla.

    I've seen this album cover a million times, and I'm just now seeing the huge Goblin Cock.

    My Score:

    The single is pretty lame I think.

    That dude from Pinback should just stick to being in Pinback. Even his stuff in Team Sleep wasn't as good as Pinback.

    The single is not even that rockin'. Actually, it doesn't rock at all. Score's for the single.

    I wanted to like this album just based on the band name and artwork alone, but it was so boring.

    1. I like Black Sabbath, respect the Melvins, and think QOTSA are overrated shit on a stick.
    2. My copy is at home in WV
    3. Nope on the pot.
    4. COOOMMIIICS!
    5. NEEEEEEERDS.
    So that'd be like a..... 1 2 4 5=Way higher than this album actually scores.
