Danger - Penguins In Sunglasses

The interestingly titled "Danger - Penguins in Sunglasses" is a five-track EP from Michael "Brawny" Braunton, the creator of the infamous comedy cult classic Norwich and Saggers. As this is an EP, I'm going to take the lazy route and just talk about each of the tracks. Due to listening to them on Soundclick, I don't know if this is the correct order or not - if it isn't and anyone complains, suck it.

The first track is "Music Sucks", which provides a chuckle and an interesting view on the current status of popular mainstream music. I loved this track, which has a memorable tune and catchy lyics, and Amy Winehouse bashing - which is always welcome. Even though there's a moment of Brawny's own-self-glorification, he deserves it.

For "Loud Guitars and Backing Vocals", Brawny has cheated and stolen his own music from Norwich and Saggers, which is a good thing - considering how it was one of the most memorable bits of the film, providing the music for an "exciting chase scene". Definatly one to rock out to.

"London" continues the comedy theme, speaking many truths about the UK's capital, from the viewpoint of someone who lives there. I agree with this song a lot, and the music is also memorable.

"Can't Stop Smiling" is your typical lovesong, and is the black sheep of the EP. I personally believe that compared to the rest of D-PIS, it's the weakest by far, even if there's a lot of visible thought and real emotion put into it.

"Equilibrium" is a fun ending to the album, with awesome guitar and makes up for CSS entirely. The lyrics are interesting, even if the song needs to be made somewhat louder...

I heartedly recommend that everyone gives this EP a listen, and it gets a 81% rating from Guesst The Password.
