Zebrahead - Zebrahead (1998)
Is zebra bread a thing? Let me take a moment from writing this to Google it and find out. Okay, it is, and it looks delicious. I want it in my mouth, in my stomach, and out of my ass just so I can consume it all over again. If you think that's disgusting, just remember all of the "Scary Movie" spin-offs America threw its money at and realize it's just a part of life to regurgitate the same old shit for eons and eons, and then an additional eon on top of that.
ZzzzzzzZZZZZZZZzzzzzZZZZebrahead is an odd mixture of music that you don't see too often! Imagine if Limp Bizkit was pop-punk and then you basically have Zebrahead in a nutshell, but to their credit, they can make some catchy as shit songs, and the fact that they have two vocalists, rapper Ali Tabatabaee and singer Justin Mauriello makes for an interesting contrast, especially when they do call-and-response vocals with each other in a song, but alas, before they could get kinky with the hoes, there was a bit of a kink in the hose of their musical journey, and that's this album!
There are some interesting ideas presented on this album but they aren't exactly what I'd describe as being expertly executed. You know what WAS expertly executed, though? Not this joke, because I didn't write one!! You know WHO was expertly executed? All of our fallen family, friends, enemies, and strangers. Time is the biggest and most prolific serial killer of all time and you probably shouldn't let it stick its little knives into your ribs while listening to this album... But definitely stick a little knife into some zebra bread to get yourself a slice, because I wasn't lying: That shit really does look delicious.
6/10
