I really like the humor behind this release. The cover is a great example of that. Overall there are a lot of fantastic tracks on this release. From "eggy Toast" to "mr frosty" and "winner takes all" and ending with "bu bu bu ba" It's nice to toss in every now and again while having a pint. 4.0/5.0 |

It's not bad. It sometimes sounds bit unfinished. Good track names :) |

First, i thought it was soo lame, but now I thinks it´s fun, and bu bu bu ba is also really good! I like the whistling! |

Not overly impressed by it. Mr. Frosty stands out as one of the best tracks on that album though. |

just listened to this release. i would call it the biggest hoax ever :P ...if i wouldn't know that it's official. very interesting release ! i'm just curious how two artist's with such different styles could make an album that's completely different from EVERYTHING they did ! |
||||||||
|

The cover art combined with the first song is so great. It has some really weird old 50's rock sound or something to some of the tracks, like Jellyfish, which I also like. Pretty good, but not the greatest |

i kinda like that "sweet-boy" look of mike on that cover :D |
||||||||

mr frosty still owns the other track on this album |

best cover ever. first track is the best. there's another track i swear i heard on an old porn once. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The actual name of the release is "Mike and Rich" BLAH BLAH BLAH I KNOW STUPID TRAINSPOTTER FACTS. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
look at the bottom left corner of the cover, where it says 'expert knob twiddlers' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
err, bottom right of the cover |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's the name of the game they stole the graphic from. In an interview Mike P. said that the name of the album was actually self-titled i.e. Mike and Rich. I would link you to the article but watmm is down. |

|
|
excellent drunken party cd |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, it's one of the best covers around no doubt... I haven't heard the music though! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I still love that album...it is....playful :D |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
best cover ever |

|
|
|||||||||

It is a good album, in the discography here there isnt a listing for the CD or the 2xlp? Oh well... just picked this one up as well.... its pretty strange and stands out on its own in a weird way. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sadist: you don't see the similarity between makes a racket / melodies from mars fused on this album which , by the way, pigeon st...is actually called expert knob twiddlers by mike and rich...the game the sleeve is a parody of is actually called downfall you flid oh and this album totally owns everything (fuckwad) but i guess if you got into AFX via MTV and NIN then you have no chance in life |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
still havn't heard this. I wonder if its on bleep? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is a pretty good listen, its wierd. i would say its for those special occasions when youre sick of the more serious music aphex does - sometimes you just want to screw with yourself |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't like this one one bit. and im a fan. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like it a lot, i am actually listening right now - its so unlike anything by each artist, i end up liking it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i only gave it a listen because it says rich on the cover. i don't even know where i have this..if i still have it at all. im happy for you though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hope next rdj album sounds more like this one. mr frosty ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mike looks like a geek on the cover. nice album, though... I have the vinyl version of this one with the bonus 7" and the bumper stickers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's fantastic and it's great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"I have the vinyl version of this one with the bonus 7" and the bumper stickers." what are you smoking now?!? ;) What´s on the "bonus 7""? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He he... just kidding...there are no bonus 7" and bumper stickers, but I do have the double vinyl and I WOULD like to smoke something... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:D I knew it! ( I got the CD, the first track and it's intro-riff and beat are the best and most memorable, I think... ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
provably the only rdj related album i dont have... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
great album, i actually bought it on cd a long time ago. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
once again i have to agree with 7pd on this one apart from his ude of the phrase "owns" if you don't like this album then you are a cunt sound of beady eyes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sounds very modern to me even now. Amazing album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me too, a proper head fuck |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a funny album, nothing more |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm going to have to agree, and i'm going to have to disagree. i'm convinced that if this album did not feature the brand names, very few people would be interested and this album would be long forgotten. if it was a blank cover, was called "knobs" by "two guys" and released on kwerk-E records it'd be completely under the radar. it's got some high points but overall it's a pretty dull, uninspired affair. great artwork, though... it's not terrible, but i own thousands of better records so why bother listening to it? except mr frosty, that's going into a dj set tonight. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not got round to listening to it all yet. its ok i guess..sorta average. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like... mr frosty eggy toast vodka i meh... the rest but for the 'drunk' sounds, artwork and overall kitch appeal i totally dig this album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
could be the soundtrack for a porn movie! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
