Album Description This debut is an orchestrated, danceable tantrum. It's flamboyant and deviant, taking you to a steamy jungle filled with sounds of howling animals in heat. Stylistically, Beep Beep draws from traditional art rock elements (XTC, Klaus Nomi, Wire, Kate Bush), while simultaneously exuding present and future genres. The lyrics stand alone as titillating prose, exploring themes of office culture as well as religious, environmental, and sexual deviance. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsLike kids throwing a hissy-fit Z. Hibbard | Manchester, UK | 10/03/2004 (4 out of 5 stars) "Beep Beep just might be the most intense and sporadic album to ever come from the Saddle Creek family. The greatest thing about it is that BUSINESS CASUAL continually surprises the listener track after track. It'll make you want to dance... but not the kind of dancing you do in a club, trying to get the pretty brunette in the corner to notice you, it's the seizure-like aneurysm that shakes you from your brain to your toes. Drawing from the likes of XTC, Gang of Four, and Sparks, Beep Beep achieves a sound similar to modern bands like The Faint and The Rapture...on speed and ecstasy that is. Electrifying and perverse, it's the next album you're going to buy." Almost unlistenable Spacemunky! | 03/14/2007 (2 out of 5 stars) "I bought the album based on the reviews and was very disappointed. I didn't find it to be witty, danceable, or charming. Musically, all the songs sound the same and the vocals are just unpleasantly shrill.
It's probably better suited for people who prefer energy above ingenuity." |
