Free Music Notes for The Presidents of the United States of America: II
Free Music Review: PUSA at their best!
Hit: 5 Stars
"II" is a collection of great riffs and memorable stories, whose songs and production blows the debut album out of the water!
This is by far PUSA's best effort and even though it didn't produce any hit singles, the songs are so much stronger than their self-titled album.
The highlight are:
-"Ladies and Gentleman" is a subdued opener, timidly asking the audience "Are you prepared to rock?" before kicking into high gear.
-"Lunatic To Love" is a lightning fast, erratic love song about being in love with a mental patient. It's like "Lump" on speed.
-"Volcano" features a comic rhyming-spree that peaks with "happy campers, have poop in their Pampers..."
-"Tiki God" is a fast-paced, solid rocker with Brady bunch references.
-"L.I.P." has a great riff and sing-along chorus, that like their best songs totally breaks down at the end.
-"Supermodel" contains another lyrical masterpiece that rhymes both "Schwarzenegger" and "Darth Vader" with "Nine months later".
This album is a great listen all the way through and has been matched only by "Love Everybody" in awesomeness-buy it now!
The Presidents of the United States of America: II Poster
It's come to my attention that the Presidents of the United States of America really seem to piss-off some people. Seems the Seattle trio are just not depressing and dour enough for those who have become accustomed to the miserable angst polluting MTV and radio stations nationwide. Well, if the PUSA have their goofy, little way, everyone will loosen up a bit and stop taking everything so seriously. When did music stop being about entertainment?It hasn't in the Presidents' tweaked, adolescent world. Like their political counterpart, Bill Clinton, these happy-go-lucky boys just want to make everything OK in the world. What better way to do so than the welcome handshake of "Ladies and Gentlemen Pt. 1" to start things off right? "Good evening ladies and gentlemen, are you prepared to rock?" they inquire and then repeat quite definitively, "Let's rock," just so you know they mean business.
And let there be no doubt, the Presidents are dead serious about not being serious. We find the usual assortment of odd character's ("Froggy," "Little Indian Princess," and others) and wacky scenarios ("Tiki God," "Puffy Little Shoes," "Bath of Fire," and "Lunatic to Love"), but the best lyrical webs spun by frontman Chris Ballew are trivial little vignettes turned into irresistible anthemic pop songs. The PUSA are the finest proponents of mindless escapism of the strangest variety. So, leave all your worldly troubles behind when you pop this baby in the CD player, and take a trip to the Presidents' world as they beckon, "This is the show, we are the band, sometimes it just takes you by the hand." --Adem Tepedelen
