    Coming from the madmen who produced stuff like Stop! (pure sampling chaos fair and square) or even Hairballs (made up of goofy confrontational grooves), this record couldnt be anything but satire, as the music contained on it sounds 'normal' on the ears more often than not, giving away the illusion of serviceability. Sure, the sped-up bits in "Schweitzer" can get a bit annoying, someone is screaming for their life in the middle of "Honey", and "Blow Me" somehow matches sexy rhodes with creepy orchestras, not to mention other delightfully acid moments here and there which aren't to be spoiled by these words of mine. But then you have "Boats" which is pretty much (some cover of) 'Love's Theme' from Barry White, and there's no accountable balance or reason between the cheeky and the disruptive moments throughout. In that sense, the second volume of this series, being overall less harsh on the ears (and therefore more straightforward), is seemingly considered to be the best of the two records. But this collection nonetheless proposes an interesting challenge to the listener: where does its homage end and the satire begins? Can simple-minded, double-edged, ironic, functional-yet-disfunctional grooves be crafted out of silly 60s novelty records (and such)? There's a lot of them to pick, too, with a variety of tempos, colors, and ways to raise an eyebrow or two, if not to completely mess with your head: closer number "Sponge" with its obvious means, a juxtaposition of 'hey check out this cool old bit' and 'fuck you, go deaf' moments which serves as a perfect conclusion for such a confused, yet fairly rewarding album. Its funny, its cute, its as difficult, somehow -which makes one wonder if it is supposed to be funny and cute to begin with.
