playin hockey in the driveway you're a righty so i used a righty stick you're so handsome in your school picture in your plaid blue shirt mom is broke and dad's always tired but they still build those huge campfires invite the neighbors laugh til they're cryin and let you stay up late and teach you silly games while your sisters make up handshakes and you laugh cuz they're so dumb and they laugh back at you cuz you farted while you were laughing at them and soon the adults are laughin too you don't like homework and no one likes school and everybody wants to be cool i think you're cooler when you are you-er sorry if that's so corny that it makes you want to gag but you are sweet and you are special even if sometimes you smell really bad i love to brag about you i'd be so sad without you i feel really stupid when i do stupid things that might impact you sorry in advance walking down the secret pathway home the girls are tying vines together they'll be tied here forever and ever you think you hear the bogeyman i say: that's impossible he only comes around here on the third tuesday of every month! you jump and take off and yell: but that's what today is! and so now we're all running through the overgrowth past pinecones and chipmunks and an a/c unit and dry leaves and half a toilet and magazines until we see the street

about

Like a turd clinging to porcelain, primitive lofi hack PLANT9000 worms the perimeter of Bandcamp eclecticism and prolifically with lamentable desperation.

Since establishing itself with 2017’s i love you so much fun, a pulp confessional of cassette tape oblivion, the Boston-based solo project has transmuted across a graveyard of digital releases in a witless effort to attitudinize quantity as quality. Following last spring’s murky and soulless How about there was a dog named fickly who was so fickly he pooped fickles, and the bloated, largely unlistenable Spinach, a new full-length album titled Hello Jello is set for release on October 31st.

As obnoxiously amateurish as it is hollow and disjointed, Hello Jello is an unsolicited descendant of the imbecilic “antifolk” movement of the 1990s. Lyrical themes and instrumental direction are obvious in their self-righteous attempt at profundity, but ultimately fail to achieve much beyond stinking and belonging underground, not unlike raw, diarrheal sewage.

The album’s pacing is both frenzied and turbulent, with it’s first six tracks clocking in under the two-minute mark and it’s last three accounting for nearly half of the total 31-minute run time. Flat, Sex Bob-Omb wannabe rock meanders into grueling, nightmarish interludes, which eventually fizzle out into a puddle of aerosol cheese ballads. Less an original piece than a two-bit K Records rip off (the likes of which Calvin Johnson himself wouldn’t even bother to steal money from), Hello Jello is a barf bag vacuum of insipid new sincerity, as worthless as it is dangerous.

Stream the unfortunate abomination below, and chalk it up as yet another cheap blow to the equine corpse that is bedroom music.

Official Score: 1.9/10
