Mc Lars has always been known to write music with a big sense of humor, almost like rap's answer to Wierd Al (there have been some comparisons made). It starts with some toy piano and some horn and has a lot of nice verses and Beefy as they write a song about the magic of rap and how it just seem's like "Child's Play." Mixing humor (Chasing money's never funny when you really need to eat/Good thing rap is easy - have you heard this awesome beat?) with things more serious: (My little brother lost his arms, legs toes in Iraq/When he got back I showed him all the magic powers of rap/I'm messing with the physics, I straight up spit out cybernetics/People love the robot parts when he's out shopping for organics). We obviously know where he stands on this "religion" with a title like"Scientology =WTF?" has a lot of interesting commentary,an awesome bass line and then at the last half minute a screamo ending telling you to avoid this line of crock. "Shvensen Fitzlogic" featuring HardNox is a funny, and maybe a little unsettling, song about a guy who goes to college just to spend time with the young hot freshman"Fake ID's? They don't matter to me, you've got some tig ol' bitties and some nice white teeth/...Hey mom, please send me more money, it's my eighth year in college digging freshman honeys." The backing music helps the eerieness, as well as the whispered/screamed delivery as he sings the refrain. Have you ever known what it feels like to be "Single and Famous?" Me neither, but MC Lars and K Flay have as they leave a message for this girl that sounds like a rude and selfish girl in this song with a catchy hand clap beat and a nice backing riff which helps me see a Solar Flare and a solo. "Reaping Beauty" seems like it want you to Sing in the beginning, but then digresses, and goes into this organic synth, this catchy beat and piano with great verses featuring Beefy, Random, Tina Root, and SMP in a song that mentions videogames. "The Lint Song" is a real cute song about lint with a nice fast beat and catchy synth, after it goes into a short story of Gloria Jonson whose intestine became infected by lint;they have this short solo. This is a cute song, evrybody sing along Fun!Fun!Fun! Fun! We all heard about Rudolph, but what about "Gary The Green Nosed Reindeer?" which has the handclap beat upfront, and this riff audible that keeps the song moving along, but not the focus; it is a really cute christmas song for those who like their X-mas music non-traditional,.Listen to the story too, it'sccute especially the stair climbing riffaround two minutes."My Biochemical Terrorist Romance" is about a middle-eastern girlfriend has rocked his world, with a little mideastinfluence. "Everyone's a Little Bit Gay" is another cute song with a nice looping piano and beat,as well as the lyrics which are pretty funny ("Footballs that's gay/Milonakis had it right/Guys shower in the locker room and put on pads and tights/They dance around with balls and slap each other's butts") and sentimental ("We try to hide it try to put it away/Confusing feelings don't mean they're wrong/So just sit back listen to my song /Everyone's a little bit gay.") Here's a fact that most of us cannot deny "Hot Girls Make Guys Do Really Stupid Things," why would I lie? Just check out the lyrics which can be pretty hilarious.We don't even need to describe the next song which is about "Lolita" in this sentimental song about an underage lover, yes, it's unsettling, the sound is spacey and the harmonies are nice, kind of makes you feel bad for him the way it's written and arranged; maybe. It has been said that the only thing that is constant is change, and "Buddhism is for Dummies" is a song about impermenance which has a siren, beat in front and organ fading in and out quotes Heraclitus"Yelling 'Earthquake!', to cope with the stress/Using comedy, like I still do today/20 years later nightmares haven't gone away," this distorted voiceover doesn't help either. "Be the beat/don't just stand there! (Call 911)/Push hard and fast (where?)/in the center of the chest ("That's CPR") that starts with heartbeat monitor, and has this catchy riff, discscratching, where have I heard this riff? voiceover, than some nice backing synth, and a song of value. This song is for all the geeks and having pride in being yourself because "Johnny Quarterback's glory days would never last/He got his girl pregnant and now he's pumping gas!/While the kid he once dissed hung out in his garage/Now he runs Macintosh and his name is Steve Jobs"; it's time to get "Geeked Out." Ashley Jade is featured on "The Bonus Track For Japan." Really, it's dedicated for all japanese fans and japan, and is slightly funky and pretty cute, but Iknow why it's a bonus track."Something Wicca This Way Comes" is about finding a lover who practices wicca; hey I think this vocal effect chorus and hook has put a spell on me.The next song says "It's a Latin Thing," and sounds like a slower and more laidback reggaeton song. The next song addresses the ills of the media and that it will do anything to make a buck, as well as addressing bias in media as it mentions Elizabeth Smart and Laci Peterson (who we know) and two african american missing girls Tamika Huston or LaToyia Figueroa (who might not have been heard of until now). With more serious verses and not as upbeat instrumentals it makes you listen and tries to help you avoid "Missing White Girl Syndrome." The next song is a very catchy and dancy song that makes me feel like a "Rock Star." Acoustic guitar asks us not to "Cry Tonight(Acoustic)," oh that's why. A lot of passion and someblood-curdling screams at the end. Today we are having a funeral "Why?" because "Nerdcore Died." How could I say that,I didn't, Lars did,but checkout this awesome song,it cannot still be dead then can it? "If this is what you call Nerdcore you ignorant dumb---." If I had to cut off five concepts I would choose: Shvensen Fitzlogic, My Biochemical Terrorist Romance, The Bonus Track For Japan, Something Wicca This Way Comes, and It's a Latin Thing.
