What's Up, Fatlip?!



Wow.
Not only is Fatlip still alive and not getting his knob slobbed on by a mysterious tranny, but he's now doing his clown MC routine for the Chemical Bros.? Seriously, WTF? Now, I've had this album for a while and I'm sure this track has gotten assloads of luv elsewhere, but I just couldn't get past that retarded Klaxons track to give the rest of the album a decent chance. But now we have "The Salmon Dance", an instant candidate for the jam of the season and the sonic equivalent of herding yourself up a bubbly stream with all of your salmon homies and spawn while jumping to and fro out of the grasp of that dasterdly grizzly bear who's aiming to wipe out your family. Basically the song is Fatlip showing Uffie how you rap stupid good while getting the lowdown on his favorite fish from a Texas Instruments knowledge device.
An instant classic.

This song shouldn't be this awesome. How good is it when the dude says, "Did you know I could got to Japan and back?" and Fatlip goes, "You're kidding me. Amazing." That part cracks me the fuck up.

also, it situates itself in a fantastic canon of other songs which invent dances that are not explained in any detail, i.e. roxy music's "do the strangler"
