Feeling like "contemporary tractor-music with a hint of cinnamon"? Such description makes it hard to resist NOT pressing the play button. At least that's what happened to me some 20 minutes ago. And just a few seconds in "Funemployment" I knew I am onto something.
Wrapped in a layer of irony, the music of Dad Rocks! or "Funemployment" in particular explores in a serious, yet laid back way important aspects of life. Life is too short to apply at Burger King. I know that sometimes life pushes you to the corner and you gotta do what you gotta go, but often those moments are just the hard transition to a better life. The kind of obstacle which when you overcome you can really cherish what you have achieved. I will stop with the blabbering an let you enjoy this beautiful mix of folk, pop, indie and lo-fi. For the curious ones - the lyrics are under the Soundcloud link.
I know it’s time to start our unemployment Let’s do a rhyme, and make it our funemployment
You could start with a water-balloon fight between the kids and you Or a record label whatever fits you Start a band and sing
Or you could apply at Burger King
You can choose between basking in the glow from the screen TV Or sign up for blogging about birds and trees Start a charity
Or you could apply at Burger King
If the dirt on your notepad doesn’t end up in the stores by spring Write the words down in a song about sex and sing Start a family
Or you could apply at Burger King
Mugs, t-shirts,
hoodies, vinyls & more.
