Ok, so I read Christian Media Review websites for the laugh value, and I stumbled across this review of DYOH while reading one of them:





PRO SOCIAL CONTENT:

None



OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT:

A woman wakes up in the company of a stranger, the implication being that they've had sex ("Sunday morning I'm waking up/Can't even focus on a coffee cup/Don't even know whose bed I'm in"). A lover is referred to as "the devil in me" ("Setting Sun"). Behind the computer-driven sounds of "Electrobank," a fuzzy, yet audible f-word appears. Even the all-instrumental tracks serve up annoyingly hypnotic sensory overload. This band's incessant barrage of nonsense, set to a dizzying repetition of the same eight or ten notes, is inherently nerve-wracking.



SUMMARY ADVISORY:

Explosive musical chemistry. It's a shame the unrelenting, intoxicating dance beats don't subside long enough for young listeners to clear their heads. Lyrics offer more tangible evidence that The Chemical Brothers are experimenting with unstable elements.

There's also a great review of 40 Year Old Virgin

I love this: "The Chemical Brothers are experimenting with unstable elements."



And as far as I can tell, they don't review anything with regards to whether it's good music or film or bad music or film, they only seem to care about whether or not it will make your children worship the DEVIL!

This old man,
he play beats,
He don't need no music sheets,
but with a snip-snip-snippy-snip
gave his mop a chop,
Old man hairstyles are a flop.

I think it's brilliant that they heard the word 'Fuck' in Elektrobank...

Ah yes, the joys of family.org. Providing entertainment for malcontents for years now. They like Coldplay, though. :D

X-D You know, when 'stash calls me at work to tell me something chemical related, it's gotta be good.







OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT:

Oh good god, no!!!!! No sex evar, and definitely no sex on Sunday for Christ's sake.



A lover is referred to as "the devil in me" ("Setting Sun").


hehe.



Behind the computer-driven sounds of "Electrobank," a fuzzy, yet audible f-word appears.


Nope, it's "there's a fucking an..." Nevermind. What are these people, deaf or summat? ;)



Even the all-instrumental tracks serve up annoyingly hypnotic sensory overload. This band's incessant barrage of nonsense, set to a dizzying repetition of the same eight or ten notes, is inherently nerve-wracking.




If I'd never heard Dig Your Own Hole, that description alone has enough literary poise to intrigue an initial listen.



SUMMARY ADVISORY:

Explosive musical chemistry.


Well that makes sense.



It's a shame the unrelenting, intoxicating dance beats don't subside long enough for young listeners to clear their heads.


Think about the children who are having their fragile little minds warped right this very second...



Lyrics offer more tangible evidence that The Chemical Brothers are experimenting with unstable elements.


That's beautiful. I love it!
