Description
Flight of the Conchords follow the release of their six-track Grammy Award-Winning CDEP The Distant Future with their full-length album debut, the conveniently titled Flight of the Conchords (which, not at all coincidentally, is also the name of their HBO television series).
Produced by Mickey Petralia (Beck Midnight Vultures, Ladytron Light & Sound) in Los Angeles, New York and Wellington, the album features fully fleshed-out and professionally recorded versions of Flight of the Conchords concert and television favourites.
The songs are heard here in expanded but reverent arrangements. Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement’s trademark acoustic guitars lead the blitz, backed by a diverse array of instrumentation. So yes, the album sounds legitimate and musically, it’s incredible, but, as Shakespeare said, “Does it funny?”
Happily, yes. Well, if amazing, delightful and hilarious is your idea of funny, then prepare for undisappointment! These 15 songs pay homage to Pet Shop Boys, censorship, Marvin Gaye, sexism, Shabba Ranks and backhanded compliments.
