Lars Gullin Vol.1 1955-1956 - Lars Gullin

Advantages: Funny, upbeat rap
Disadvantages: Not for everyone

...the current record industry in a classy and tasteful way, creating not only good music but pointing out a few home truths. 'The Roomate from Hell' features MC Chris and the two of them together create an amazing song. MC Lars in not generic by any standard. MC Lars does have an EP out, 'The Laptop' which although does have a couple of crossover songs from this album, if you get the chance to listen, also features some incredibly new and upbeat tracks. MC Lars is one of those artists you will either love or hate, and personally i love him. I would certainly recommend listening to some free sample of his music before purchasing this album, because what i see as a musical genious, many see as a talentless yob Track Listings 1.

Advantages: combines rap and punk-rock so well
Disadvantages: not enough songs

Advantages: A good mix of songs
Disadvantages: Doesnt help you get through the housework

...A cd thats a couple of years old now but still fun to listen to. I mean this cd says its meant to help you through the housework but I personally dont think it really does,if anything it distracts you,because you just start singing along to all the great tracks this album has to offer, you get caught up in the music and completely lose track of what you were doing - maybe a good thing in a way :-) Housework vol 1 is a double album that has some cracking songs that you just dont seem to hear on the radio anymore such as The Beach Boys - Help Me Rhonda and Don McLeans - American Pie. The songs on this album just make you feel good and really help to lift your spirits,but I honestly think its marketed wrong,this is a feel good album for anyone just not people doing the housework.I dont think the title of the album really represents...
