Adult Rodeo - Texxxas

"Hillbillies with a Powerbook, this trio of pop newprimitivists go all flippy-floppy...an album of baroque minimalism, freely associated lyrics with a Southern-goth bent, and loopy case of the Half Japanese cutes." - Richard Gehr, The Village Voice Following hot on the heels of their 1999 debut, the widely acclaimed "The Kissyface," Adult Rodeo welcomes the new year with "TEXXXAS." This studio album is a showcase for their ideas to come to full fruition. The songs are full of their sonic antics and surreal imagery. They easily switch between full on catchy pop and laid back ballads. Adult Rodeo have been compared to Ween, but as anybody who has seen them live will testify they truly defy comparison with their unique brand of music. Following in the tradition of Lone Star State founders Stephen Austin and Sam Houston, "TEXXAS" raises the flag of Shimmy-Disc higher than ever. It is time to stand up and salute.
