4.0 out of 5 stars Jazz and super stereophonic!, December 11, 1999

This album is very cool. I saw them at my school with Jars of Clay last year, and was blown away by their performance! These guys sure do have a lot of energy, and they capture it well with this CD. "Original" and "Yo Tengo" are two HUGE reasons to get this album--the songs just plain ROCK! But, there are some differnct songs on this disc...and that is why it is lacking the one star that would give it a 5. But, their are some cool ones and some ok ones. My suggestion is to borrow this CD from a friend and make your own judgement. Then, if you like it, come back here and buy it! Thanks and God Bless!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good rap?, January 20, 2004

Yes there is such a thing. This just really had me moving. Unlike most artist of this genre, these guys right meaningful and insightful lyrics. Also this CD is cheap so listen to some samples and if you like what you hear then buy the freakin thing. My personal fav. track is VERB. It means alot to me and I often find myself singing it. Oh and by the way I happen to be into punk, hardcore, ska, metal, and emo, so it takes alot to impress me, and let me tell you, these guys blew me away. I loved every sing second of this amazing CD. Too bad these guys aren't together anymore. This is a must have for any music lover.

4.0 out of 5 stars "I heard a band that was better than the last one around...", November 6, 2000

Well, well, well...this one's quite interesting. This was the first album I picked up from these guys, even though it's their second. I demoed it a while before I bought it, but something about it just didn't appeal to me enough to me to make the purchase at the time. Until I heard one particular song from "Vegas" on another comp. That song was "Original". The beat, the lyrics, the guitar...everything about that song was awesome. Even though it's only a couple of minutes long, it grabs hold and doesn't let go until the end. When I bought the CD a couple months back, I found out that "Original" isn't even the best song on the album! These guys have a lot of fun on this one. The lyrics are very catchy, the guitars, drums, and DJ all blend quite well; it's one of the feel-good CD's of the year. It's a bit harder-edged than their first ("Watusi"), but if you liked that one, you'll really dig this. They cover almost the entire musical spectrum in the course of about 40 minutes, and they pull it off in spades. Sample it today; get it tomorrow. (By the way, the name "Silage" comes from Psalm 147:9, and it means "fodder for cattle".)
