Free Music Notes for If
Free Music Review: If You Don't Like If
Hit: 5 Stars
MSI's wobbly-legged self titled demo somehow gave birth to the wonderfully strange album, "Tight". Which was a breath of fresh air in it's time. "Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy" was a monster of an album but in retrospect it was a one or two trick pony. Still a classic and most fans will agree. They started touring heavy and nothing was hear from them until the live album "Alienating Our Audience" was released featuring a lot of new songs that had only been played live. Around the same time they released a tour-only EP "Despirta Las Ninos" which teased of a new album on the way but wound up being mass produced and made available online and at Hot Topic... the next album wouldn't come for awhile yet. "You'll Rebel To Anything" found them a little wobbly-legged again, darting between songs that were catchy and fresh with some that might've been better off as b-sides. Still, another classic album that most fans love. If you missed it, there was one more EP called "Another Mindless Rip Off" that again promised a new album was on the way with an obvious nod to a new direction in sound... but that album wouldn't come out for another couple of years. That album is "IF".
With all of the MySpace/internet hype that's snowballed over the past few years, MSI have stayed true to what they do best - write funny and completely insane songs. "IF" is a lot more accessable. You can actually understand a lot of what Urine says the first time through. He sings more than he raps and thankfully there are no covers on this album. (Even though "Bring The Pain", "Big Papa", and "Tom Sawyer" were pretty damn good.) A lot of old songs got the studio touch up ("Animal", "Revenge", "Pay For It", "Bomb This Track", "Mark David Chapman") and it honestly sounds like the band is having a lot of fun in the studio now.
"IF" may just be one of their best efforts to date, and dare I say, possibly their best. No, it's not as odd as "Tight". No, it's not as in-your-face as "Frankenstein Girls". No, it's not as indie as "You'll Rebel To Anything". Yes, it's catchy, it's up-beat, it's fun, and it's funny. With special guest appearances by Lyn-Z and Urine's wifey AND mama, it's a whole new playground for them to defile. Can't wait to catch 'em on this tour.
