Fatboy Slim
Palookaville (Astralwerks)
by Lex Marburger
Hey, have you heard the new Fatboy Slim album yet? No? Well, turn on your TV, I’m sure one of his songs is playing in at least one of the new car commercials. Yeah, He of the “Rockafeller Skank” is back, and Palookaville is pretty much the same kind of album that he released four years ago. Oh, people might tell you that this time is different, cuz he got actual real-live musicians to play with him. You might hear hype that he picked up his bass for the first time since the Housemartins, but don’t let ’em fool ya… Palookaville is pretty predictable for a Fatboy album.
