Album Review

This quintet dishes up a hot platter of hip-hop beats and punk edge on Mobile Estates. Funky tunes like "Better Days" and "Under the Influence" are filled with a positive vibe and textural ingenuity, featuring swirling samples and tasty riffs. A fun-filled disc.

Better days reminds me of my childhood

Milwaukee DOES have some good music after all.

Citizen King blew up right away and then literally blew up never to be heard from again. It's a musical tragedy because these guys are amazing live and Mobile Estates is one of my Top 10 albums of all time. Think Beck, mixed with some Beastie Boys and a dash of Freestylers. The music is good to listen to anywhere... driving, grilling out, doing chores, working out... anything. Just a solid hour of feel good rockin tracks. Bill Hilly is the king of the hill!!

o.k.

Not a bad album but not near as good as their first, The Brown Bag LP. Saw them dozens of times around Milwaukee in the mid '90s. Always a great show.
