If you aren't on their suicidal rampage of a train, you're about to get ran over by that same train you tried to avoid. They're blowing up left and right, booking shows all the way from their homeland of California to the distant east of New York.
Their lyrics consist of teenage angst and an ode to something similar to The Slim Shady LP. They incorporate some story telling techniques as well as some plain vulgar and horrifying things said which makes you question how fucked up these guys really are- especially if you saw the video EARL, which I thought was as damn near to a snuff video as someone could get.
But thinking about it, this is what they want- a shock value. Something that gets you to pay attention to their lyrical debauchery. They're smart and straight forward. Laughing about death, rape, murder and zoophilia isn't necessarily clean or clever humor, but dead baby jokes have been thrown around for decades.
OFWGKA is much more than that though. Give em a chance and don't rule em out, or you may be the last one on the train when there are no more seats.
Stay C.O.L.D.
