Editorial Reviews
4 stars out of 5 - ...Ex-cellent...
Uncut (20010901)

Like the show that spawned it, this soundtrack of sorts--consisting of 39 dialogue excerpts and musical bits culled from `The Simpsons'' comic rampage--is most successful when it's most subversive....Coming to an answering-machine greeting near you. - Rating: A
Entertainment Weekly (19970321)

8 (out of 10) - ...unlike the recent boob-tube vanity discs SONGS IN THE KEY OF X and the ER soundtrack, this album stands on its own. When Groening is finished Bob Mackie, defrocking Amadeus, and generally skewering his native land in every song, there may be nothing left in America except for the doughnut...
