danthemjfan23 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Neon Creeps - O Pioneers! the first track of an album is something that's supposed to grab your attention. in a study i made up for this review, 80% of people said that they can tell within the first 10 seconds whether or not they like the music they listen to. with that in mind, wouldn't "eric" - the alleged front-man of O Pioneers - have been better off having the first track not suck huge donkey balls? with a title like "Saved By The Bell Was A Super Good Show," i was actually almost anxious to listen to the song. it didn't even take me the whole 10 seconds, though, to know that it was missing something. lots of things, actually. here's a short list of things that song needed to be better: - the sound of a.c. slater pumping iron in the weight room - kelly kapowski doing cheerleading shit - sound clips from screech's porno - jesse spano rubbing her weird body against a stripper pole - a part in the song where the music freezes (like the show used to do) and zach morris explains to us what the fuck is going on - mr. belding's voice coming over a loudspeaker - lisa turtle shutting the fuck up cause she's annoying - a breakdown in the song that would have been the SBTB theme song in it's entirety i mean, come on, eric (if that IS your real name...); i've been sitting here thinking about this for 6 minutes and i've already thought of 8 things that would have made just ONE of your songs better. this is your livelihood, it would be nice to see a little effort and creativity put into it. fuck. then we move on to "The Architect of Disney World." when i saw that the track was longer than 2 seconds, i was shocked. how long does it fucking take to say "Walt Disney"? the second song is unnecessarily long, clocking in at over three minutes. we'll skip over tracks 3-6, because i already reviewed like 4 Hot Water Music albums this week, and i'm kind of tired of them right now. the seventh track is another colossal disappointment, based on the title alone. "I Have A Major Weightlifting Problem" is another prime opportunity for the band to utilize sound clips of A.C. Slater in the weight room, yet the dream remains unfulfilled. tracks 8 and 9 i'm not gonna lie, i didn't even listen to. one was about being friended on facebook (didn't the gym class heroes already do a song about that??) and the other was about the ever-growing prolem of pedophilia in the midwestern states of the lower 48. too preachy for me, but whatever. the last track, like the first, got me really excited based on the title. at first glance, i thought it was called "kool aid city" which could have been the best song in the past 5 years. instead, much to my dismay, the song was actually titled "cool kid city" which sounded way lamer than kool aid city, so i didn't even listen to that either. overall, i went through this album in about 11 minutes, and it was a huge waste of my time. i give it 3 stars, but my scale is out of 1,609. RIYL: the sound of animals fighting. not the band. like, the actual sound of animals in the middle of a fight. if you enjoy horriffic squeals of pain and terror (and not the good kinds), you'll fucking love this album.

dante3000 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 *ahem* Since their last smoldering turd of an album, Black Mambas, O' Pioneers!!! (referred to as OP!!! from this point on for brevity's sake) have pulled, what I like to call, a "Wonder Years". That's where the more annoying and bothersome Fred Savage character (OP!!!) is tempered by more humorous and more attractive characters (like Bomb The Music Industry!). OP!!! have achieved this through a series of splits, where they've managed to balance out their brand of music with bands who are generally more popular and palatable. However, their latest offering, Neon Creeps, is much like Savage's post Wonder Years career, awkward, annoying and without the saving grace of a hot Winnie Copper in sight. OP!!!'s key member is guitarist/"vocalist" Eric Solomon (or Duane "The Man Brain" Solomon as he forces the other members to call him). On previous works Solomon forced a vocal range that was somewhere between Tom Gable (of Against Me!) and a guy who's testicles were in extreme discomfort. Fortunately, for Neon Creeps Solomon has found a new muse in the form of Hot Water Music's Chuck Ragan (and a guy who's testicles are in extreme discomfort). Frequently the vocals bare an uncanny resemblance to someone who really wants to be Chuck Ragan (maybe even met him) but ultimately falls way short. The only real advantage this offers is that one can close their eyes and imagine that they're listening to some old, forgotten Hot Water Music demo (you know, before they were good). Musically, the band has added a bassist. As for song structure and content expect a lot of serious downers. Apparently all the guys in OP!!! want to think about are serious bummers. This doesn't really add depth to the songs because they are written similar to a kid who complains about not getting chocolate milk before bed. One example is the constant repetition of phrases, like a two year old when they learn a funny word. For my two year old nephew that word was "pinecone" (pretty fun, right?). For Solomon, in the opener, "Saved By the Bell was a Pretty Good Show", it's "drama", a word he repeats like a billion times. It's better than my original interpretation, which was "drummer" and I assumed it was about the bands inability to retain any members outside of Solomon. It's too early in 2009 to say if Neon Creeps is the worst album of the year (I mean it is only February). However, I can say it is likely the worst album of the previous 200 years. The only way I can imagine this album was made, is that Solomon's people control all of our major media. If this fact is true, than Neon Creeps is reason enough to support Palestine. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
