5.0 out of 5 stars Marty...We've Got a Hit!, August 2, 2004

OK, you've got to be wondering: who exactly is MC Lars? Well MC Lars is definitley one of the freshest new artists you're going to hear this year. In fact, he's Hurricane Fresh. Using beats he made on his laptop and various instruments he had lying around, MC Lars has crafted one of the most clever and original recordings I've heard in a long time. He drops more pop culture references than a month of VH1's "Best Week Ever" and anyone who can incorporate Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" with the Brand New song "Okay I Believe You But My Tommy Gun Don't" is nothing short of a genius. The rhymes on every song are extremely tight and there is nothing elementary about anything here. Lars has what most MCs out there now lack: brains. You'll listen to some lines over and over just to grasp the full hilarity of them. The highlight for me is the sublime "Signing Emo" which chronicles the rise and fall of fictional emo band Hearts That Hate, complete with a chorus by said band that is rife with more emo cliches than the entire Drive-Thru Records catalog. I almost split a gut the first time I heard it. Trust me on this, if you enjoy anything about music and can appreciate a rhyme of any kind you will not be dissapointed. The only downside here is that there are only seven songs, but since there is no filler, it's worth the price.
Who's house? Raven's House!

MC Lars does it again. This CD includes the great remake of the poem The Raven, his style of Hip-Hop and Rock will surely make him one of the bestselling artists out there. The CD also includes hits such as "iGeneration" and "Signing Emo".

This CD will defenetly be worth the money.
