Buy The Bookhouse Boys - Self-titled [Album] From Amazon.com

When I first put this album on I thought that this could be a new fresh sound, but then I realised the album was just one big song, as every song sounds the same!. The guitarist uses the same guitar sound in every song, every song has the same type of structure about it, and it’s so boring. One of the most boring albums I have ever listened to in fact! The singer’s voice goes right through me, I’m hearing a slight resemblance to Morrisey, that’s not a good thing in my eyes, the man’s voice is boring as hell.

The Bookhouse Boys do like they’re spaghetti western sound, every song is set in that way. It grabs your attention for a few seconds but then gets old. I remember Green Day doing a similar style to this in a song on Nimrod I think it was. Guess who did it better?

I can’t really say much more about this album other than in the song ‘I Can’t Help Myself’ he uses the word cunt!

If I got to the top I knew that I might fall and when those little cunts came knocking no-one heard me call
I was shocked and appalled at that.

I wouldn’t advise anyone to buy this album unless you’re having a western themed fancy dress party.
