I remember Andrew WK being massive for a little while back in the early 00s, but then he just disappeared (legal troubles apparently). Never had any real desire to rediscover just what the hell he even sounded like, but I just had the whim to check out his debut today. All his **** basically sounds the same, the wall-of-sound production makes it hard to separate the instruments, and you actually feel your brain cells dying while listening to it, but it's also quite possibly the most pure expression of euphoria and fun I've ever heard in rock music. It's Ke$ha in rock form basically, except the dumbness actually feels like a wink and a nod (possibly) from someone actively creating a musical cartoon.
And god damn it every time I listen to "Party Hard" it just makes me wanna listen to it more.
