The mood is buoyant, the instrumentation is varied and the childlike naivety runs rampant throughout.
-
The Unicorns manage to polish an array of pawn shop instruments into miniature masterpieces.
-
Those without a stomach for a little humor in their music will surely thumb their noses, but for everyone else, this is essential listening: a whip-smart band of originals, living with death, throwing coconuts at the rest of us from greener pastures.
-
Although much of the album sounds amateurish, and sometimes painfully so, the Unicorns regularly remind us that it's all shtick.
-
To be sure, there is an ironic smirk clinging to much of Who Will Cut Our Hair..., but there is also the subtle beatings of unpretentious sympathy and maverick potential.

UncutThe schizophrenic tone changes recall the experimentation of Deerhoof, yet the overall sound is as natural as The Flaming Lips. [Jan 2005, p.132]

Im just astounded by how bad this album actually is.
