You pretty much know what you’re getting with Shonen Knife, a trio of Japanese women who sing in English as best they can. They’ve been doing it to it for 27 years, and this is their 14th album. “Deer Biscuits” is sillier, and that’s what you want with your Knife. This is not a band that takes itself seriously, and that’s why it works.
“Na Na Na” has lots of fun real-life-in-Japan samples and is also a fun one. If you want a more serious track, try “Your Guitar,” but really, why would you want to do that?
“Super Group” and “Evil Birds” are the two end pieces on this loaf of french bread. They do an excellent job of getting it started and finishing it off, respectively. But such references should be reserved for a Cibo Matto review. Are they even still around?
