Our first impression of this CD was that it was more of that annoying rock/crap shite that we immediately toss into neverland. But fortunately we were patient enough to get past the first track (most likely because we are almost always impressed by releases on the Standard Recording Company label)...and we found that we were rather intrigued with BigBigCar. We can\'t tell you much about the band as there was no press release included in the package...but based on the liner notes on the digipak sleeve, we did conclude that the folks in this band have a rather defined sense of humor. In addition, the style and scope of their music is at times bewildering. Exactly what style of music is this...? The sounds and influences go all over the place...and our guess is that the folks making the music don\'t give a rat\'s ass about commercial acceptance. BigBigCar consists of David \"Moose\" Adamson, Jeff \"2K\" Costello, Pat \"Ostry\" Okerson, and Andy \"Peecan\" Young (one would almost get the impression that the band is fond of nicknames). Limestone Throne/Kid Fight is a complex album, far reaching in scope...that unfortunately will only appeal to a tiny segment of the listening population. But our guess is that this l\'il sucker will be an obscure favorite in the months and years ahead. Neat stuff, presented with unusual spirit. Top picks: \"Oh, Let\'s Race,\" \"Blu\' Floatin\' Whale,\" and \"Gone Patsy.\" Least favorite track: \"That Limestone Stomp.\" (Rating: 4+++)
