FREEZEPOP - FANCY ULTRA-FRESH

Freezepop\'s Fancy Ultra-Fresh is the kind of CD that grows on you, whether you want it to or not. Mixing Devo, Aqua, and every other synth-pop band together, Freezepop is kitschy Eighties nostalgia that will get stuck in your brain and make you do the robot for the duration of the disc. It’s like if the band from the end of Revenge of the Nerds cut an album. And it’s so damned embarrassing, that I actually dig it.
Standout tracks are \"I Am Not Your Gameboy\", \"Outerspace\", and the hidden track, a cover of the theme song from Jem. You know what I\'m talking about: \"Jem! (Jem is excitement!) Oh, Jem! (Jem is adventure!) Oh, glamour and glitter, fashion and fame! Jem! (Jem is truly outrageous! Truly, truly, truly outrageous!) Whoa, Jem! (Jem!) The music\'s contagious! (Outrageous!) Jem is my name! No one else is the same! Jem is my name!\"
So, pull the blinds, lock the door, and do the robot to your heart’s content.
