Megapuss “Surfing”

This is yet another silly rock album for people that enjoy the relevance of being irreverent. It’s not my cup of tea, but Megapuss would be better served if they were ground up and percolated anyway.

“Crop Circle Jerk ’94” is no “Pop Song ’89.” I like the horns at the beginning, but the title is so fun that the song just falls flat in general because of the inflated expectations. It’s fine, I guess.

“Duck People Duck Man” is cute. This is the one the kids will like. It has a guy talking in a funny voice about stereotypes, duck ones specifically. I am sure there are inside jokes abound in this song, but even without getting them, it’s still fun. I mean, it talks about hummus, for crying out loud.

I like “A Gun on His Hip and a Rose on His Chest,” although there is a ton of swearing in it, for those of you scoring at home, goddammit. Very thought-provoking lyrics though.
