I am a longtime fan of wckr spgt. Although the band sets its own course across the sea of rock, Everybody's Dead Oh No is one of their strongest and most accessible collections to date.

First off, I love this cd! I love Wckr Spgt.
This cd holds up well over time. This is the indie-rock band Wckr Spgt with the members of Nothing Painted Blue (Franklin Bruno, Kyle Brodie, and Peter Hughes) providing back-up. And the Reverend Howard Drucker on the spoken-word "An Appointment With Death". It's more rock and roll than other Wckr Spgt recordings.
Some of the songs ("Freud Was Right", "Daphne Stepping Sideways", "The Caring Song") are fast and furriest while others ("Flinch Mob", "Marriage at 30,000 Feet", "Singles at Church") show-off the interesting counter-rhythms and song-construction that make Wckr Spgt such an exciting-band.

And, of course, it contains the best version of "Making Love in the Pew" ever!

Wckr Spgt sounds different from album to album. This one is the big rock and roll record. I highly recommend this cd if you like this sort of thing.

I thought I'd check it out. And I WAS NOT disappointed. Sometimes you get disappointed, you know? You think, well, I don't know -- maybe. And then you listen and you're all, oh man... NOT THIS TIME. And I listened and I was even happier than I'd hoped. Get yourself this CD, and a Poochy Woman, and feel good about yourself.
