Electric Puppet Theatre Reviews Green Naugahyde

Comic Version

Sara: I went to grab the new Kittie album...
Pria: Any good?
Sara: Solid -- like In the Black, only more adventurous.  Tara's really holding her own.
Pria: But?

Sara: Check this out!
[[Sara flourishes the clear green vinyl of Primus's latest release: Green Naugahyde]]
Pria: On vinyl?
Sara: Two weeks early!
Pria: Have you got a record player?
Sara: I was kinda hoping you would.
Pria: No, but I know who does...

[[Janice eyes one of the platters]]
Janice: No liner notes?
Janice: Let's try this side

Janice: What is this?  Captain Beefheart?
Sara: Huh, I guess Les is still doing that gravely Tom Waits thing...
Janice: Or, we've got it at the wrong speed.
[[Janice switches the turn table from 33 to 45 rpm]]
Sara: Oh!

[[Music: Hennepin Crawler]]
Pria: Ace!  Finally we're getting some respect!
[[Music: Lee van Cleef]]
Janice: Ragtime, nice.
[[Music: Moron TV]]
Pria: Heh, picking up where Spagetti Western left off -- waking up from a stoner's daze and seeing what we've got on the telly these days.
[[Music: Jily's on Smack and The Eyes of the Squirrel]]
Sara: Hypnotic arco dirges a la Mary the Icecube]]
[[Music: Eternal Consumption Engine]]
Sara: Yes!  Punchbowl circus jams done well!

[[Music: Salmon Men]]
Sara: The cohesion of Frizzle Fry and Pork Soda.  The whimsy of Punchbowl.  The texture of Antipop and Purple Onion.
Pria: And those tight Primus cymbal and tom patterns.
Janice: Worth waiting for?
Sara and Pria: Oh yeah!

Janice: Good -- Let's put eyebrows on it.

[[Primus -- Green Naugahyde -- On vinyl now.  CD in stores 9/13/2011]]
