Biography

Flight of the Conchords couldn’t be here today. So they sent this bio—with their warmest regards—instead.
Oh, they wanted to join you in-person. Honest. But pop stardom requires non-stop commitment. One minute you’re launching a new signature fragrance or malt liquor, the next sharing tidbits of hard-earned wisdom with this season’s crop of American Idol ...

Editorial Reviews

Herewith, Sub Pop's debut release from New Zealand's 4th most popular folk-comedy duo (and, yes, okay, also current HBO phenoms), Flight of the Conchords. The Distant Future EP includes Business Time, If You're Into It, and Not Crying, as well as live versions of The Most Beautiful Girl in the Room and Robots. Plus, there's live banter! We will be releasing a Flight of the Conchords full-length recording sometime in early 2008.

Customer Reviews

This cd is great for fans but also to enlist new fans who may never have listened to them. T. Fulker  |  11 reviewers made a similar statement
Although this is a relatively short cd, all of the songs are great. R. Mitchell  |  7 reviewers made a similar statement
The studio tracks sound great, but the live stuff is what gets 5 stars from me. WildSlutAngel22  |  3 reviewers made a similar statement

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome blend of comedy and musical talent August 10, 2007
Format:Audio CD
Flight of the Conchords is hands down the funniest show on TV this summer, but Bret and Jemaine are also known for their wickedly funny live shows. This little EP showcases both their in-studio and live performances and provides a nice little taste of the full album to come in early 2008. I can't wait!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant! August 30, 2007
By Arevee
Format:Audio CD
Flight Of The Conchords is one of the funniest concepts since Ricky Gervais unleashed The Office. Alot of people won't get it which is probably why HBO almost cancelled their show. Unfortunately, they can't match the scary success of Sex In The City. The genius of their comedy is woven into their songs with such clever skill that it takes several listens to catch all the subtle hilarious references. Eventually, FOC will get the attention they so justly deserve but probably not until sometime in the distant future...the year 2000.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh yes, it's definitely business time. August 7, 2007
Format:Audio CD
How wonderful for Flight of the Conchords that they're finally getting the attention they deserve, and by HBO no less. Their laidback, quirky humor, mixed with definite musical skills, always makes me grin. I hope they acquire a HUGE fan following.

By the way, Business Time is by far my favorite song.

4.0 out of 5 stars For fans
It's a nice piece of work. A bit too short, but very good though. Fans will be able to enjoy the hit "If you are into". I would recommend.

3.0 out of 5 stars close to the limit
It has some repeats from the other albums - and 2 live recordings of songs - which is interesting. Also there is 1 track of live banter which is funny. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Look elsewhere
It's simple. Don't buy this album. It really isn't worth it. Most of the songs are live, and despite that, not much additional content is provided to each song. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars HILARIOUS!
It takes an episode or two to understand their accents but you have to see this show or at least listen to the music, "Robots" and "I'm Not Crying" are my favorites... Read more

I was a fan of these guys since before I saw this and got it as a gift for a friend of mine. He laughed so hard he almost wet himself.

3.0 out of 5 stars Starts off indecent, but gets better near the end.
Flight of the Conchords should have done a little more brainstorming when trying to come up with things to sing about. This disc has five songs, and two of them are about sex. Read more
