Title: Disappointing
Review: I'm a longtime fan of They Might Be Giants and have loved every album they've put out, until this one. Mink Car is just plain bad. Three or four tracks, like the opening cut "Bang" are passable songs in TMBG's familiar style, but most of the tracks are virtually unlistenable. Typical example: "Drink!" in the hands of TMBG, ought to be a witty, eccentric parody of drinking songs. Instead, it's just a really lame drinking song. There's no humor, no spirit, not even a good melody. It sounds like John & John weren't having any fun when they wrote and recorded "Mink Car." There sure isn't much fun to be had in listening to it. I can only hope they do better next time.
