Factory Showroom
Released in 1996, TMBG's Factory
Showroom was an attempt to combined their new full band sound with their old
highly personal studio-made sound. The album has some really good songs, yet others
seem to be missing something. It seems as though TMBG was in a hurry to break there
record deal with Electra which started with Flood. Songs like Metal Detector
sound reminiscent of the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds album. Till My Head Falls Off
is a good hard driving punk song. The strangest song is Exquisite Dead Guy
which is an insane and dark bubble gum pop song backed by strings. The folk song James
K. Polk gives a great historical over view of Polk's presidentail term. Then
there is the funky misinterpreted song S-E-X-X-Y, which is actually about a
transvestite (I think). The biggest "hits" off the album were the crazy
lounge song Spiraling Shape, S-E-X-X-Y, and James K. Polk.
My personal favorite is James K. Polk.
My Rating For this Album is: B+
