Paul’s Boutique

Released

If you want to break from your debut’s ironic-lunkhead orbit, you could do far worse than to take advantage of how big of a pop-culture casualty you are by creating a record that flaunts its breadth lyrically and musically at every possible opportunity. This ridiculous sample-spree punchline machine of a record looms somewhere between Double Dee & Steinski’s “Lessons” and Mystery Science Theater 3000 in terms of ’80s-minted postmodern ultrareferential wildness, while still remaining its own peerlessly funky little universe.
