Boom Dot Bust

For a bunch of old guys, the Firesign Theatre are sure on a roll. They've followed up 1998's Grammy-nominated Give Me Immortality or Give Me Death with Boom Dot Bust a mind-blowing comedy masterpiece set in the heartland town of Billville. The residents are all named Bill, and there's a long history of natural disasters and lynching politicians ("I am the mayor. Re-elect me or hang me! That's the will of Bill!"). The all-new cast of characters also includes the Elmers of Elmertown, lifestyle expert Martha Glueit, and global action-movie star Charlie Fatt. It's a CD-length story, told Citizen Kane-style through a hilarious labyrinth of infomercials, talk shows, flashbacks, specialty cable channels, and a sermon from Rev. Barnstormer of the First Reformed Church of Science Fiction. In other words, it is the Firesign Theatre doing what they do best. Those crazy guys have reached a new creative peak that will have people grinning with joy and laughing out loud. --John Sulak
