Free Music Notes for Stop Staring at MeFree Music Review: The Boys on auto-pilot. Hit: 2 Stars
This is what you guys came up with! I knew it couldn't last but if these guys don't stop (excuse the pun) phoning in their performances I just might have to do somethin' silly and stop buying their CD's. What is this stuff? The Boys used to be artists; the way they used English language was avant garde and refreshing. Now they do caricatures of their characters, who were only novel vessels which to screw around with people in the first place. The jewel of the bunch here is "Willy the Jackass" Now that's some funny s**t. The guys have lost their edge. Pranksters mourn.
Free Music Review: Many wasted calls! Hit: 2 Stars
Most of the calls on this album were a waste of time.Anyone could have called people and made funny noises.All of their comic story telling has diminished,and frankly this one made jerky boys 4 seem like a winner,when in fact it wasn't.
Free Music Review: The Jig Is Up Hit: 2 Stars
People are on to them. They've run out of ideas, and most of the time people are well aware they are being pranked.
Free Music Review: By and Far their worst album! Hit: 1 Stars
I have been a *HUGE* JB fan since their first CD. Yes, their albums have slowly been losing steam since their debut album - but THIS CD... this massive, steaming, nasty, runny, putrid pile of freshly excreted dung should not never have been released. I can count on one hand the number of good tracks it has (and I'd still have a finger left...guess which one). Half of the calls are useless because the people they called figured out its a prank and either half heartedly play along, or just make fun of them and make the Jerky Boys look like idiots. The whole magic of a prank call is that the person your calling DOESN'T know that its a prank! Thats what made their first 2 CD's so great! This pathetic excuse for a CD has almost none of that charm and even less decent laughs. I was actually saying to myself..."are they serious with this?" while I was listening to it. If you actually want to laugh, go buy the first two CD's. Those are genuinely funny. This CD is good for one thing- the trash. DON'T WASTE YOUR CASH.
Free Music Review: Finally Hitting The Bottom Hit: 1 Stars
Most Jerkys' fans thought that things couldn't get any worse than the fourth album, but sadly, they did. This is as low as crank-calling gets, and it's obvious that the Jerkys had lost all of their inspiration at this point. This is a couple of tired, bored guys pumping out a product to make a few more bucks.
Just look at Sol Rosenberg, once the greatest character in prank-calling comedy. Some of his tracks on the album - 'Masturbation Box' and 'Send A Salami' especially - are excruciatingly stupid and unfunny. It's a real shame. The Jerkys were once clever punks; now they're vulgar and predictable, spewing juvenile potty humor. And what's with the '1,000 Chickens Trlogy?' None of the three parts is funny by itself, and it's less funny as a whole. Once Sol starts talking about having sex with the chickens, you'll shake your head and wonder where Brennan's clever and bizarre sense of humor went.
Avoid at all costs.
