Negative Positive
Title: Tool of the mess
Review: ... quite possibly the worst record of 1999, considering the Poster Kids degeneration and their ability to somehow lower the bar with this ambitionless dreck. I'd refrain from listening to this one even while hiding under the bed with headphones - for fear the Taste Police will revoke my membership in the People With Functioning Brain/Ear Connections Club. Has the fallout from Albini's Daisychain With More Bass! Less Vocals! Reaction really prompted a casting call for a carnival barker to mumble through "Ankh?" Devo would be embarassed - heck, Mr. Bungle would be redfaced if subjected to New World Record's mark for abusive eclecticism. Poster Kids: Thank you for trying something new, but please try something else ... Tropicalia, explosive! Latin pop, perhaps. Find bonbons to shake. Leave the passionless-drivel soundtracks to the professionals.
