"Flight of the Conchords is hands down the funniest show on TV this summer, but Bret and Jemaine are also known for their wickedly funny live shows. This little EP showcases both their in-studio and live performances and provides a nice little taste of the full album to come in early 2008. I can't wait!"
Brilliant!

"Flight Of The Conchords is one of the funniest concepts since Ricky Gervais unleashed The Office. Alot of people won't get it which is probably why HBO almost cancelled their show. Unfortunately, they can't match the scary success of Sex In The City. The genius of their comedy is woven into their songs with such clever skill that it takes several listens to catch all the subtle hilarious references. Eventually, FOC will get the attention they so justly deserve but probably not until sometime in the distant future...the year 2000."
Oh yes, it's definitely business time.

"How wonderful for Flight of the Conchords that they're finally getting the attention they deserve, and by HBO no less. Their laidback, quirky humor, mixed with definite musical skills, always makes me grin. I hope they acquire a HUGE fan following.
By the way, Business Time is by far my favorite song."

"I'm glad these guys finally came out with a CD that's easy to get in the States. The studio tracks sound great, but the live stuff is what gets 5 stars from me. This EP provides a nice selection of different styles, and even a little bantering. The only way to improve this is to add more tracks, but it's a wonderful teaser until the full-length CD comes out next year."
F.o. the C. are the greatest!!

"Fellow robots or "robros" you need to get this!!!
This EP is great and I just can't get enough, I'm really looking forward to the full album. I became a fan of these guys back in 2005 when I first saw them on HBO and I am so glad that are now getting some real recognition.
Also amazon.co.uk has the "Complete BBC Radio Series" three CD set with a running time of three hours. Most of the material has been reused for the HBO show but it is all still very funny. You should check that out as well."
