Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Brooklyn resident, comedian and really great guy (and Russian immigrant) Eugene Mirman has, among a great many other things, released two previous albums: Suicide Squeeze Records' The Absurd Nightclub Comedy of Eugene Mirman and the 2006 follow-up En Garde, Society! on Sub Pop Records. Now, three years later, The Mirm (that's what the crew on the Flight of the Conchords tour called him) is releasing the possibly offensive, but most likely charming God Is a Twelve-Year-Old Boy with Asperger's.

4.0 out of 5 stars I listen to a ton of GOOD comedy, October 23, 2009

By	Stephen D. Norman Jr. (Nashville, IN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The other reviewer is nuts. Maria Bamford is really funny. If you enjoy the greats like Zach Galifianakis, David Cross, Patton Oswalt, Michael Showalter, Dave Attell, Demetri Martin, you know people with a sophisticated style and delivery, then you'll be right at home with this album. Great stuff. Ignore completely if you get into garbage like Carlos Mencia or Dane Cook. This is quirky indie comedy by an interesting person for interesting people.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great album from Eugene, November 2, 2009

By	G. Pulido (Chicagoland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I first saw Eugene on the Comedians of Comedy tour a couple years ago. While I was least familiar with him, he was the funniest and going back to listen to his older albums confirmed that. If you are a fan of the new school, standup-is-the-new-grunge comedy, than you will love this. In addition to purchasing and enjoying this disc, I'd also recommend follow him on Twitter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Of Indie Comedy and Hate, November 2, 2009

By	Ryan E. Nunes "ryan" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Why would you believe a guy who starts his review in the middle of a sentence? There is a possible world in which that guy goes to comedy clubs, puts down 6 or so drinks and barely laughs at funny jokes. This is actually surprising as I would imagine his insatiable craving for jokes that involve the word "faggot" and "retard" only increases with a belly full of MGD.

This album is funny. It discusses serious issues like bears gentrifying cities and myspace ads. Also, don't worry; you don't have to like Nuetral Milk Hotel in order to enjoy this album.
