Get out of my swamp song id5/6/2023 Once again I struggle to hear any music, much less magic, in the world of Swamp Thing. When they turn on the trumpet it’s like a sprinkler hitting a home-made water slide. What’s left of that white-on-rice Black Magic trickles out over Let’s Get Live as a perfunctory piano and second line drum rhythm feels like the opening to the off-Off-Broadway equivalent of a Pixar period-piece. People might thing the Conchords have reformed.Ī bit of the ole, sly New Orleans feel gets hog-tied and pinned down for Baton Rouge, imagine Randy Newman singing a dry first draft with Dave Grohl’s gun to his head. Should turn heads at next year’s Comedy Fest at any rate. But “She’s a selfless creature/And a patient teacher” just might be. “Mother’s work is never done” is surprisingly not the worst lyric here. It is about as sensitive-as-can-fucking-be and a real blow for modern parenting. No, really.Ī big-throated race through In My Time of Dying sounds like a parody of a Quentin Tarantino bar-room scene the band almost eating themselves in the blood-lust of devouring the song.Īnd then, holy shit! – we hit the Subtle As Fuck territory again with a weird little pop song called Mother’s Work. The breakneck party-punk of Boom Town sees banjo in place of guitar and a song that sounds like a mating ritual between Me First & The Gimme Gimmes and Limp Bizkit. This is what happens when you’re far too excited and don’t know how to behave. But here it’s about stick-twirling chicanery as the pair repeatedly dry-hump the leg of the blues then take a leak down its jeans. He’s very clever – and I remember seeing him put to stunning use back in the day as part of a Neil Finn band. There is no real concept of dynamics as Haua hits at the same slide sounds and Barker goes full carnival with his pat-your-head/rub-your-tummy drums and keys. But the music is missing heart, soul and nuance. From there they’ve worked hard, touring incessantly. Swamp Thing owes its tremendous success to appearing on a local talent show and a loyal audience has formed. Weiss, like the music of Tom Waits has lost all muscle-memory and is jelly-strolling three paces before flopping into a bean-bag. The title track is part of the Subtle As Fuck material the band has, erm, crafted. Here they open with a hurtle through Last Fair Deal Gone Down (that’s in the Fuck Subtlety category by the way, and if you couldn’t guess straight away a mini drum-solo, no seriously, mid-way through the album’s opening song is the clue). But they seem to operate on one of two levels only: Fuck Subtlety and Subtle As Fuck. Look, Grant Haua (guitar/vocals) and Michael Barker (drums/keys/vocals) are not without talent. I fondly recall the time I attended a Swamp Thing show. Unlike the original Swamp Simulator Shrek NPC, this one has the ripped sounds, models, and textures, and being able to chase more than 1 player.Swamp Thing is a Kiwi duo that either can’t spell or is aiming for the big time internationally – either way the delusion is strong across new album, Rumors & Lies. The new Shrek NPC Nextbot based off the old horror game, Swamp Sim Horror. *Sniff* They stink? Yes, no! Oh they make you cry? No! Oh you leave them out in the sun and they get all brown and start sprouting little white hairs? No, layers! Onions have layers, ogres have layers, onions have layers. So if you're expecting a comeback or even a revival of all of my other bots, it just can't happen, I just can't find motivation to play this game anymore. Whats this, this is back on my main account? Ok I want to make this clear, I will not be fixing this mod or any of my other mods.
