I do actually not doubt that the German cult band J.B.O. consists of pretty professional musicians. Every now and then I catch myself thinking that they play this and that part really well and that it grooves neatly. And you could say that I as a Dane ought to be able to understand and perhaps even appreciate the humorous take on hard rock and metal the Bavarian outfit lays out in front of us. But, really, I don't. It's just not funny.

The rewritten versions of Opus' pop tune Life is Life (Death is Death in J.B.O's version), Alice Cooper's School's Out (Schule Aus) and These Boots Are Made For Walking (Das Bier ist da zum trinken) don't work at all - I can imagine how Nancy Sinatra is rolling in her grave. The conclusion is easily made: In the event I want my metal to be funny, I'll turn to Tankard. Anytime. Thank you.
