2 stars (Good Try) Bit of an oddity but the monotone of the singing affected one's ability to concentrate on what was being said. ~Tubbs
4 stars (Very Good) Unique. A mixture of social commentary and mad invention. Interviews with local residents are recreated as musical numbers with hesitations, grammatical fumbles, etc., included as lyrics. Dark, often very funny - and with some genuinely great songs. ~Toby Dammit
