This is quite possibly the silliest concept I've heard since Opera's Greatest Drinking Songs. Mixed and sound effected by one Syndicate (who?), the disco isn't all that great beyond Ottawan's Boney-inducing "You're O.K." And near as I can tell, the sound effects are relegated mostly to the spaces between songs. But oh what a head-scratcher! It begins with a child answering a phone to hear "I'm from the Syndicate. I'm gunna kill you." Then machine guns and screams. Then carving knives scraping each other NOT on the beat of the first track. Someone drowns in the moments before "You're O.K." Other sounds include race cars revving up, a man screaming, a man having a shit fit in Spanish-gibberish (maybe), a VERY loud cat, Yoko-style whimpering, coffins opening, more machine guns, more carving knives, etc.
NOT a good album. But I thought y'all should know about it. Here's the tracklisting:
