180 Gram, 20th Anniversary Edition of Stunt. Pressed on heavyweight, 180 gram vinyl and housed in a gorgeous gatefold sleeve.
Barenaked Ladies originally released their fourth and most successful studio album, Stunt, in July 1998. Stunt peaked at #3 on the Billboard. The album reached platinum status four times in both the US and Canada, and was certified gold in the UK. This year, band will celebrate their 30th Anniversary on October 1, 2018.
Stunt is another tightly wound, witty, melodic Barenaked Ladies album, with songs that range from dangerously manic to contemplative and nearly sweet. The slightly psychotic white boy rap on "One Week" employs wacky lyrical ingenuity, with such lines as "Hot like wasabi when I bust rhymes/Big like LeAnn Rimes." On the other hand, the charm of "In The Car" lies in its twangy alt-country sound and a sense of nostalgia for a more naive time. Barenaked Ladies' lyrics can veer awfully close to being precious, but they avoid crossing the line with a magical combination of intelligence, biting cynicism, and a refusal to take themselves too seriously.
Barenaked Ladies: Steven Page (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, flute, piano); Ed Robertson (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, percussion); Jim Creeggan (violin, cello, acoustic & electric bass, background vocals); Kevin Hearn (electric guitar, banjo, accordion, piano, electric piano, Clavinet, melodica, organ, keyboards, synthesizer, samples, background vocals); Tyler Stewart (vocals, drums, bongos, percussion).
Recorded at Arlyn Studios, Austin Texas in Feburary 1998 and Phase One Studios, Scarborough, Ontario in March 1998.
