Dec 7, 2010The Peas may not have dramatically outdone themselves this time, but they've succeeded at keeping the good times rolling yet again.

Dec 7, 2010You can probably imagine what it sounds like: minimalist drum machine beats, techno-lifted synth pulses, plinky keyboard hooks, retro-fitted hip-hop callbacks, pitch-shifted vocals, and songs that chain your brain to the furnace and beat you over the head with their cursed affability.

Dec 7, 2010The Beginning's shameless hit-mongering and MOR club stance gives this set about as much oomph as Cher's Believe.

Dec 15, 2010Made my ear bleed. Too much auto-tune. Totally a waste of time and money. Not recommended at all.
