5.0 out of 5 stars Bring out the soda pop and beans, and cut a big one!, December 15, 2003

This review is from: Christmas In The Air (Audio CD)

The Gadlers, Nick and Rick, have come with a series of Christmas songs using burps and gastric emissions as notes and even substituting words. Yes, it's juvenile and silly, but it's good for a laugh. And their motto is "Quality Music, Quality Gas." In short, they've cut a big one. Key, {O} is a burp, @ is a gastric noise.

The opening song,"Jingle Belch" is probably the funniest, as it demonstrates their humorous sound. The song has an initial burping of the opening, then when the Gadlers sing about "melting all the snow, with a {O}{O}@@@", the funny stuff begins.

"Oh what fun it is to {O} and @ as you drop your guts tonight" goes one of the choruses. The funniest lyric has to be this one: "Up at Santa's pad/the elves were making toys, but soon they all got warm, and started making noise @@@/soda pop and beans/put gas inside their butts/the castle shook in harmony and and Ms. Claus went nuts." The belch that follows sounds like an explosion,which left me laughing.

On "Belchers We Have Heard on High", the main rude noise is a drawn out burp that accompanies the "glooooooria in excelsis dio" part.

"Here We Come a `Caroling'" sounds like a loungey country-like song with the usual {O}and @ sounds interjected so that "the air's turning green." There's spoken interjections such as "Oh lord, now where did I put that burrito?" or "It's getting mighty stanky in here."

"Don we now our gas apparel. Fa la la la la..." Yes, the Gadlers give "Deck The Halls" the gastric and belch's juice treatment. features some very squeaky and liquid gastric noises, meaning Santa must've eaten too much fruitcake. "Blowing wind right out our a-es. Fa la la la la..." Those guys!

Has anyone tried to keep a long burp going as long as possible? Or for that matter, the sound that comes out the other end? Well, the gastrumental "Jolly Old St. Nicholas" is the result of that, with an airy synth sound playing.

"Out On The Dance Floor" is a very light techno take on "Up On The Rooftop" about someone trying to ask a girl to dance but cranks one out. Trying to be normal as I walk on by, blaming it all on the other guy" "someone else let one big and loud/there went another to my left and right/everyone is cutting the cheese tonight/@@@ who will know/@@@ let one go!" @@@ instead of hohoho. Yeah!

"We Wish You A Merry Christmas," the "caca"pella version, has a backbeat of one belch, two rude noises, while the words are burped out. "...and have a gassy new year," they wish, ended by a long, squeaky, you-know-what.

"The 12 Days of Sickness" describes the noises that are the result of diarrhea, bad eggnog, plum pudding, and fruitcake. "On the fifth day of Christmas, diarrhea gave to me," then we hear a toilet flushing. And yes, this goes on for twelve verses, which is why it clocks in at 4:14.

The traditional belsh, instead of traditional Welsh of "I Saw Three Ships" features, you figure it out.

The title song seems to be an original tune, but accompanying family, friendship, and such are rising tensions such as going to the mall, maxing credit cards, wrapping the many gifts. The way to relieve that stress: "All across the nation/drink some carbonation/release some flatuation/release your cares/put Christmas in the air." And the Gadlers release lots of tension here.

After the countdown is burped, the main part of "Auld Lang Syne" is a light techno number with some electric guitar, and a barrage of very ripe and loud noises, some of them substituting words, which will cause a titter and giggle. It climaxes with a loud-drawn out cacophony of belches and gastric sounds.

Instruments included here are the rumpet, gastric guitar, vulgar violin, rectalizer, and colonic clarinet, to list a few. A few fair warnings: if you have a good sense of humour and a sometimes silly mindset, listen to this. Oh, and after listening to this CD, make sure you aren't standing by a lit fireplace. CH4 + O2 ->, well, figure it out. So Merry Chris{O} and a happy new @@@@@! Ah, that felt better, putting some Christmas in the air.

I always yell at them to stop. But boys will be boys. So for Christmas this year I'm getting each of them this funny CD. Now they can atleast fart and burp in tune! ~Alexa~
