Ablum by Duplex

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Ablum rocks so expertly and so convincingly, that it seems a minor miracle that the team of wild canucks responsible for recording it concentrated their efforts on the oft-overlooked kids' market. This-side-of-disgusting song titles like "Pooing and Peeing" provide a peek into a generally very funny lyrical style. Singing is hit or miss, with Duplex's female lead channeling a less wholesome Laurie Berkner, and its male crooner calling to mind Ray Davies in stronger moments. Because there's no warning label on the cover, you heard it here first: May cause an outbreak of mohawks among 6-year-olds. --Tammy La Gorce

5 out of 5 stars Unconventional 'kids' music.......2006-03-09

This is not your typical kids music release by any means: essentially quirky indie-rock with lyrics suitable for little ones. In others words: FINALLY!!! Where has this ablum been all these years?! If you are a mom/dad, enjoy alternative or independent pop/rock music, then go buy this! It is a blast-from silly little ditties, to full out rock songs, it's a great way to expose your kids to some music that has real passion, and provides an alternative to all that mass-marketed crap in all the record stores.

Favorites (among kids and parents in our home):
Mr. slim, Figure 8 (a schoolhouse rocks cover!), Hanu, and Camels in the Desert (but not canteloupes!!).

Get this for your kids-it's awesome.

We make a little music "just for fun" in our house, and Ablum is a welcome adddition. The 4-year-old can be a little resistant to new music--he knows what he likes and likes what he knows--but he was requesting his favorite tracks the first day.

5 out of 5 stars Music for the whole family.......2005-05-30

Whether you are three years old or eighty you will find yourself first tapping your toes then clapping your hands and finally dancing with a big grin on your face while listening to this c.d.
It is rollicking and unpretentious, and sings about everyday things that all ages but especially children will easily identify with.
