Would you let this man advise you about music?

Would you let this man advise you about music or much less stab a tator tot? We think not. Still don’t believe us then read this.
Reading album reviews like that can be like walking down a cobblestone alley that suddenly veers into a sand dune while being chased by a big pile of shit.
Good job [...]

TOAS - Midnight Turd Fit
Bill O'Turdly, July 28, 2008 # 2 Comments
If there’s anything the happy boys in TOAS have learned from listening to songs at strip clubs, it’s the difference between “pop” and “rock”: Turd on a Stick’s seventh album announces straight off that it’s the former. The first sound on the first song, “She’s My Whore”, comes from Bill O’Turdly’s memories of cheap threesomes [...]

Turd on a Stick - Bark at the Turd
Bill O'Turdly, September 2, 2007 # 2 Comments
An action figure is usually jointed, thus capable of various dynamic poses. A figurine, meanwhile, is typically frozen into a single pose. It might enjoy an exquisite level of detail, might be nice to look at for awhile. But in the end, it isn’t meant to be engaged with– it sits idly on the mantle, [...]

Turd on a Stick - Dirty Tree Fucker Threat
Turd Furgeson, July 11, 2007 # 2 Comments
Don’t Fear the Esoterics:
For fans of electric mouth harp music, Turd on a Stick’s - Dirty Tree Fucker Threat is a gift that’s long overdue. TOAS’s fourth album gracefully glides over the same sonic ground that their contemporaries generally tread with reverential obedience or dilettante tactics. Growing into their prodigious own at the [...]

TOAS - Deer Turd
Bill O'Turdly, February 21, 2007 # 3 Comments
Unless you’ve been living under a rock that is itself under a larger rock– or you’re not a TOAS fan– the TOAS story should have a folkloric familiarity to you. To read a blog or webzine in 2007 is to hear the tale of two brave lads from Philly and Detroit who bypassed the Byzantine [...]

Bill O'Turdly, February 18, 2007 # No Comment Yet
Thanks to our pal Fark McTurd, TOAS has been able to uncover the criteria for Pitchfork Media’s record reviews. It seems that Popdork at Sub Pop Records broke this story in 2004. Unfortunately, the original report has been lost, but we were able to retrieve this…

I Wish I Were This Cool
Bill O'Turdly, February 16, 2007 # One Comment
Wondering what this dork is doing on TOAS? It seems he wasn’t able to make the cut for Hot Chicks with Douchebags (a TOAS favorite). It seems that in order to make it on to HCwB you need a woman next you. It would also help to move out of your parents’ basement.
