FOAM
‘N MESH (ECA
Records) In the mighty name of Jesus, thank God. After wading through
all this punk rockin’ crap for far too long, I’ve finally come across
a band that I’d be proud to manage.
Foam ‘N Mesh are pure double-barreled country rock, and they’ve
been able to put to music things a man like me can really relate to.
Now I’m not exactly sure what the song titles are (the CD showed
up with no sleeve, but who needs track listings?
Track listings are for pussies), but it’s my guess that the ass-kickin’
first cut is called “Mustache Rides Are Free.”
Just plain makes me hungry, if you know what I mean.
The next one is a catchy little number that revolves around the
repeated phrase, “I’m gonna finger you until my mom comes home.”
Having lived in my own ma’s trailer until I was 32 years old, I
really took this to heart. I also found myself endeared to the sensuous female backing vocals
demanding “You’re gonna finger me!”
and the good memories this ‘un brought back gave me a lump in my big ol’
throat. The third song is probably called “Choad.”
It chugs along goodstyle about the area between a man’s balls and
his cornhole. I always thought
of it as the taint, but it’s nice to now be able to expand my vocabulary
a little bit. And as the song
suggested, I grabbed a mirror, took off my jeans and took a nice gander at
my own choad. Absolutely
fascinating. The disc ends
with edited versions of the first 2 songs, but I guarantee that if I was
their manager, they wouldn’t need no stinkin’ edits to get this fine
music on the radio. –“Mean” Russell Taff
