You might not know this about us, but we get a lot of pitches to review kids’ CDs and we usually reject them all. Because they’re lame. But Jam Toast’s new CD, Silly Grown-Ups, Punk is For Kids, is the opposite of lame. The lyrics are funny and catchy, and the music is rockin’! Best of all, it doesn’t make you want to stab your eardrums until you’re deaf like most kids’ CDs. Bonus!
Here’s a little bit from the Jam Toast homepage:
Ever wish those Wheels on the Bus would just fall off once and for all? Jam Toast does.Just because you’re a kid—or have kids—doesn’t mean you don’t crave the crashing guitars of high-energy rock and roll. Punk rock IS kids’ music, after all; it’s fun, fast and noisy—and it’s not afraid to colour outside the lines.
Admit it, more than once you’ve wished for the Wheels on the Bus to just fall off. This CD is the answer to your kid-friendly music problem. All of our reviewers liked it and their parents did, too. Now go buy one for a stocking stuffer for your little punk and all the other little punks you know.
