Funny

Not only is this funny the music is good too!It's entertainment nothing more just good entertainment for us with a slightly offbeat sense of humor. These guys are very clever,talented and not bad as musicians..Hey it made a long 2k road trip pass by quicker!

Awesome and hilarious

Everytime I listen to any track on this CD it makes me laugh and think of the episodes those songs come from. If you like the series you'll like the CD a lot.

Totally Entertaining

These guys are the most talented, hilarious and straight up entertaining band in many moons. In the middle of listening to an amazing musical arrangement you just crack up with their lyrics. Brillant, brillant, brillant cd.

Flight of the Conchords - S/T 9/10

Finally, New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo has released their first real album. While fans have been able to hear Bret and Jemaine's highly entertaining brand of humor on HBO and live albums, Flight of the Conchords is their first full-length record.

While there's something to be said for Flight of the Conchords' live records and actual concerts, which is one of the funniest things I have been privileged to attend, their debut album does manage to translate a good portion of their irreverent humor into the studio. The songs, as usual, don't disappoint, running the gamut from anti-war sex anthem "Ladies of the World" to the funky bedtime jam that Marvin Gaye has tried so hard to perfect, "Business Time." Who can resist seductive statements like "two minutes in heaven is better than one minute in heaven?"

Most of the songs benefit from the added instrumentation and production, with "The Prince of Parties" sounding like the Beatles if they stayed in India longer and were a comedy duo, and "Boom" is much more understandable and palatable with Bret's clarified vocals and the faux-reggaeton production.

The only disappointment is the utter lack of new songs. While a compilation might be a necessity for casual fans or newcomers, Conchord lovers will already know pretty much every song on the disc, and one would've thought with the exposure the two have been getting, they would've jumped on the opportunity to release new material. But you can't begrudge what they've already created, which is pure comic gold.

This acclaimed Kiwi novelty band follow the release of their six-track Grammy Award-winning CD EP "The Distant Future" with their full-length debut. Features fully fleshed-out and professionally recorded versions of the duo's concerts and TV favorites. Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement's trademark acoustic guitars lead the blitz, backed by a diverse array of instrumentation and production technique. If amazing, delightful, and hilarious is your idea of funny, then prepare for undisappointment. These fifteen songs pay homage to Pet Shop Boys, censorship, Marvin Gaye, sexism, Shabba Ranks, and backhanded compliments.
