Longboat

D-(Minus)

2017-02-02

To say this album is unique is an understatement. I would closely relate them, or consider Longboat to be a cross between Frank Zappa and Weird Al Yankovick, if that is even possible. The lyrics are closely related to Weird Al for sure, with the beats being closer to the Frank side of things. Not too bad overall, and enjoyable to listen to despite the weirdness lol Longboat has 3 albums coming out in 2017 and this is the first installment, so it will be interesting to hear the rest of them. I liked tracks 2, 10, and 12 the most.
