They Might Be Barenaked Giant Ladies

The distinguishing feature of this album is that the sound is becoming more polished and conventional, as though TMBG has hit on an actual TMBG style, and is therefore content in their groove.  I can't quite put my finger on it, but it reminds me of an album where the instrumentation is done by the Barenaked Ladies, while the lyrics are straight TMBG, hence the title of this review.

So that being said, this is a strong effort that continues the style of The Spine.  Since I liked that, and likened it to John Henry, I will be consistent in comparing this to John Henry.  There is nothing wrong with that, and this is every bit as good as The Spine, with no tracks that I will habitually skip.  The first 4, and the last tracks are the best of all.

So why a one star deduction?  Well, because Flood is their best album, and all my reviews keep that in mind.  If TMBG releases an album as strong as Flood, I will give that 5 stars.

But enough of all that.  For those who complained that Spine was too short, buy the First Edition of The Else up immediately!  Cast Your Pods To The Wind may have a lot of skippable songs, but it has some real gems as well, and make this a double album for the price of one!

The photography made them seem like they are much larger, these things are microscopic. That being said they are the possibly strongest magnets I've ever seen.

I wouldn't really trust them on a queen or larger. Over time, mine began to sit a bit crooked (on a full bed).

They are shallow so be careful what you put in them. I think the ferns we put in them will outgrow them soon.

This band is coming to Memphis in Jan. I had never heard of them, so I checked them out on Spotify. I thought they were some band from the early to mid 70's when I heard their music. They sounded great! Reminds me of heavy and prog rock from back then. But they are a newish band from Sweden. Check this one out if you are into this kind of music.

It looks like someone got the order to put together rock music with women in it. Preferably music they had rights to. And then tossed this little thing together. Sounds grim, right? But somehow the result is better than anyone would predict. Good songs, randomly arranged, and I found a couple of new bands (well, new to me) to explore further. A great example of an inexpensive sampler being successful. Heck, ignore the "Grrrl Power" and embarrassing covers and be happy with the music.

I love their new album.  But then it would be very hard not too.  Everything these two women do is a joy to listen to and a a great healer when things are not going so good.  You can't help but wonder what they  will come up with next.  Keep the music coming.

Well the title says it all. You start to think you really know these ladies and you like them. There are a few predictable moments but they weren't corny

The perfect color that I needed, and they look splendid.  However, these little girls are quite stout and heavy ....... not that I can't wear them, they just pull a little because of the weight.

These ladies (assisted by a few of the guys) do a fine job of recreating the sound associated with Bob Will's Texas Playboys.  And they should, because, as the first song humorously points out, some of Bob's Playboys wore a skirt!  (They were girls.)

Now, this music is produced and polished and played by ladies with decades in the music field, so you won't hear anything raw here.  Maybe not even anything spontaneous.  But it's lots of fun if you remember Bob Wills as the King of the Golden Age of Western Swing.

These Ladies are Awesome! There sound and vibe is not like any other.  First time I heard the 3 song LP I knew the full project would be magic.  Their sound transcends you to another place. Buy and support this talent.  I'm excited about their live show coming this weekend in my city! Enjoy!

this group is great. if you like them, you will like this. i suggest you listen to snipets before buying blind, but if you give it any chance at all, it will grow on you. see them live, if possible, and be prepared to be trampled. they drive their crowds berserk

How can two women get into so much trouble not even trying to? Or more right, how can a troop of women see so much crime? An other fun read.

If you like The Little Willies you should catch another Brooklyn country group, The Sweetback Sisters.  Must be something going on in Brooklyn.
