Hooray For Boobies, Bloodhound Gang
Those familiar with the Bloodhound Gang's recent exploits in the world of mainstream MTV will probably have already written off the Bloodhound Gang as just another case of a good band selling out big time. Stick with "Hooray for Boobies" though, and you'll realise that they haven't quite made the full transition just yet.

Sure, there's the instantly recognisable "The Bad Touch" and "Inevitable Return of the Great White Dope" that we all grew sick of pretty quickly thanks to over-rotation, but tracks like "Along Comes Mary", "The Ballad of Chasey Lain" and "I Hope You Die" show the Bloodhound Gang still know how to write decent stuff.

Unfortunately these highlights are interspersed tracks that range from average ("Hell Yeah", "Three Point One Four") to the downright boring ("Right Turn Clyde", "A Lap Dance is So Much Better When The Stripper is Crying"). Occasional comedy moments are entertaining, but fail to distract from the mediocrity of many of the offerings.

For die-hard Bloodhound Gang fans, of course it's a must-buy, but everyone else will find their finger on the "Skip" button of their CD player more often than not.
