Summary: So good I actually bought it...
Comment: As the title says, I bought this album. I know, in this day and age? That's how much I love this album. Granted it's happy nerd rock, but what's not to like about that? I saw these guys play Spiritfest in Kansas City and they took the stage like bionic musicians. My favorite tracks are Pluto, Ball Point Man, Riot Nrrd, 718 and Sgt. Stiletto. Sadly they've since disbanded, but they are not forgotten!
Customer Rating:
Summary: FINALLY!!
Comment: I found it!! I've been looking for this album off and on for the past 5 years, and now it's all mine!!
oh... great album, by the way.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Blown away.
Comment: I saw these guys back when they opened for Sugar Ray at the State Theater in Detroit. They came out in these "devo" style hats and white jump suits. They all just stood in front of the audience posing like super heroes. the whole croud laughed and didn't know what to expect. Then they played and won the crowd over instantly. I can't recall a time when I've had more fun watching a band. There was such a fun and positive energy through out the whole place. Everlast came on after them and paled in comparison. And even though Sugar Ray was good (they even brought out Kid Rock for a few songs), the J's really owned the evening.
After their set, I ran into one of the lead singers on my way to the bathroom. He was working the crowd and told me about this cd that was on sale in the loby. I asked him technical questions and to my surprise, he answered me honestly. We chatted about how they couldn't clear "the imperial march" sample (that darned George Lucas!) and a few other production tid bits. Very cool and down to earth.
I won't go into the music on the disk because there are some other excellent reviews here that say everything that needs to be said. What I will say is this...A group with this much positive energy deserves to be heard. And the fact that a member of the group would take the time to talk "technical" with a fellow musician speaks volumes about the friendly open vibe they have mastered both on stage and on disk. Give them a chance.
P.S. "Volumizer" is as close to perfect as an electro-hip hop-rock-r&b cd can get. Pick that one up too...
Customer Rating:
Summary: By far the best Skinnee album.
Comment: This is by far the best Skinnee album. This is the one that made me fall in love with the J's.
I feel their newer albums got away from the original Skinnee that made the crowd jump and never want to leave a live show.
This album and the way it mixes the rock and rap will stay in my CD rotation forever.
Customer Rating:
Summary: This is what Skinnee is all about.
Comment: This album is absolutely unbelievable. The lyrics are incredibly well-crafted, it is a thing of beauty for sure. The only song for the J's that even earned them remote popularity is Riot Nrrrd, which really could serve as the anthem for the CD and the band if The Good, The Bad, and The Skinnee wasn't there to put all other songs in their place. There is simply not a bad song on this CD. Buy it, listen to it, look up the lyrics in Webster's, then know why they are the best lyricists on the planet.

Editorial Reviews:
|
The debut release from New York cult band The 2 Skinnee J's is a fun and intelligent mixture of hip-hop, rock, funk and pop culture. Altough evocative at times of other rap-rock fusion groups, the J's are an entity all their own, dishing super-heroes on "Ball-Point Man" and delivering a full-throated geek call-to-arms on "Riot Nrrd". Long-time fans will love the new and improved recordings of "The Best," "Champion" and their tribute to Brooklyn living, 718," as well as the appearance of concert standards like "Pluto" and "The Good, The Bad & The Skinnee". Lyrically, frontmen J Guevera and Special J drop more sly and often obscure references than an episode of The Simpsons. If your idea of a good time includes rhymes about Old Jedi mind tricks, Bhoutros Bhoutros Gahli, and Shazam! layered on top of loud drums and wah-wah guitars, these are the J's you're looking for. --Andrew Boscardin
