CD Reviews

A must-own album!
Kari J Espelien | Colorado Springs, CO United States | 04/01/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Wow! At a time when music on the radio is so stale and you think everything that can be done has been, this band comes along. Besides being excellent musicians, they put on an energetic live show and have a sense of humor. Extra points for the pink xmas lights on the tuba and use of the phrase "socially retarded" in "Danglin' Feet". Their music was described to me as "mariachi polka punk" with a hint of Ian McCulloch (Echo & the Bunnymen) in the singer's voice. Sounds like a strange combination, but it works! If you are looking for quality music, BUY THIS ALBUM!!"

"I started with Little Miss Sunshine and worked my way backward in DeVotchKa's discography. This album is a little different from their later work, with some musicians that are no longer with the band. But their unique sound started here, has carried on and become greater. Supermelodrama is more raucous, with more of an American indie-rock sound, but sets itself apart with violins, accordions, etc, and some cool guitars and beats. It's fun to hear, to sing, to dance to, and the lyrics are always great. I won't even bother comparing it, because it's unlike anything I'd ever heard before. There's not a bad song on the album."
