Review

The band's second full-length album is more cohesive and harder-edged than Elevator Music for Non-Claustrophobic People, but the Dinner Is Ruined's A Maggot in Their Heads still has that free-range swirling sound that drenched their first CD. On Maggot, the band's dark, silly humor is more prominent on tracks like "Classic California Ass," "Montana Doesn't Need Me," "Sweet Land of Mines," and "Old Horse Whore." There's a fast, thrashing tribute to one of hockey's greatest on "Bobby Orr," and "Buffalo Jump" sounds like a surreal, North American Running of the Bulls. A Maggot in Their Heads feels like a rocky trip to the subconscious and back -- and leaves you intrigued. ~ Gina Boldman, Rovi
