First of all, I'd like to correct amazon.com about something: John Flansburgh is not "formerly" of They Might Be Giants. TMBG just put out a new album in August and is currently touring. Now, on to Mono Puff: I like this album more now than when I first bought it. It does tend to grow on you, so if you don't just go ape over it first, don't be concerned. Like my one-line summary says, this album always puts a smile on my face. It's not the most profound thing Mr. Flansburgh has ever done, but it's a lot of fun and a worthy addition to my CD collection.

Although Mono Puff's latest, "It's Fun To Steal" has its definite high points, it will probably be enjoyed only by die-hard They Might Be Giants fans. The songs that do best on this album are the ones that do not have only good music, but good lyrics--for more often than less, the music fails. Songs that will probably be enjoyed by just about any They Might Be Giants fan, die-hard or not, are those which sound most similar to songs made by They Might Be Giants, whom John Flansburgh is a member. The main failing is that the album does not have the cleverness nor structure that a They Might Be Giants album would have. John Flansburgh's talents are better showcased on those albums, not Mono Puff's.

This extremely cohesive album is something that should be cranked up in the car on a hot summer day. As refreshing as air conditioning, this album seamlessly blends the older music with great new tunes. Flansburgh has outdone himself. It gets better everytime I listen to it.

Really.

Not only, by especially for, the ladies.
This was the second(last?) Mono Puff album, which was a side project by They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh. Read more

Flansy raises his glass in a toast to the '70s...
At least, that's how I interpret the decidedly provocative cover image. Pale and pudgy, bespectacled and baby-faced, They Might Be Giants' versatile singer-guitarist John... Read more

Classic Flansy
Anyone who has listened to They Might Be Giants knows John Flansburgh's slightly eccentric and always fun musical style. This album is full of that same spirit. Read more

A major disappointment
It becomes quite obvious from this recording who is the creative genius of TMBG. It's John Linnell, full stop. Read more

John Flansburgh's side project becomes an entity unto itself
This, the better of the two albums by the side project of They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh, shows Mono Puff developing into an actual band, rather than simply a repository for... Read more

Second Album is E-X-X-TRA CRISPY
This CD is a must have for anybody who who was ever a fan of They Might Be Giants. The album frolicks over a mixture of funk rock, and Flannsburg's own unique style. Read more

Excellent.
I highly recommend this album. The songs on here have some killer bass, and sound wicked awesome with a subwoofer. Also this is some great driving music. Read more

shoot me
This cd is the epitomy of bad. I have seen TMBG countless times live. I appreciate their music and consider myself a fan but I can't find one morsel of goodness on this cd. Read more

Mono Puff's It's Fun to Steal is not what it seems. They Might Be Giants fans should be forewarned that Mono Puff is not the same light accordian sound you might be used to. Read more

"Mono Puff" not "TMBG"
Although Mono Puff is a take-off band of They Might Be Giants, don't expect the same TMBG here. The sounds go everywhere from 70s lounge music (which may not be a good thing) to... Read more
