Croissant



WARNING: Due to the nature of this post, I am obliged to inform you that there is some very bad language towards the end.  You have been warned!

For the vast majority of my life, I was completely adverse to the concept of a comedy album.  Music was serious, crafted expertly by anguished young men and women who poured their heart into every note.  Now I am approaching 30, I’m actually partial to certain comedy acts, most notably the fantastically funny Flight of the Conchords.  They manage to craft frighteningly accurate pastiches of classic songs, as well as being talented tunesmiths in their own right.  I would definitely rate their eponymous debut album as the greatest comedy album of all time.  That was until I heard the new king of comedy, Yeezus himself.

The Complete Guide to Everything

Hello readers!

Well it has been almost a month since the last post, and this has been mostly due to the absence of one half of the contributors.  Those who remained (me) could easily have been updating on a daily basis, were it not for the fact that I have been incredibly busy.  I know what you're thinking: that guy has probably been using all this free time to do something useful, something intellectual, something worthwhile.  Nope.  I've done what I always end up doing when left alone for prolonged periods: I have spent an unhealthy amount of time listening to comedy podcasts.  This is possibly because it feels like there is actually someone here with me; when I lived in a caravan for 10 weeks I managed to work my way through the entire Adam & Joe back catalogue.  This time it has been The Complete Guide To Everything.  If the video below makes you chuckle, you can listen to all of their output via their website.



In the future I should probably pick up the phone and get some real people round...
