Our Take

CRASH TEST DUMMIES, known for their deep baritone vocals and offbeat lyrics, make a triumphant return with "God Shuffled His Feet." This album is a mixed bag of musical genres, blending elements of folk, rock, and even a hint of gospel. Lead singer Brad Roberts delivers his trademark deep voice, sounding like a mix of Leonard Cohen and a grizzly bear.

The standout track on the album is undoubtedly "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm," a catchy tune that will have you humming along for days. The quirky lyrics tell the tales of unfortunate individuals, adding a touch of dark humour to an otherwise melancholic melody.

Tracks like "Afternoons & Coffeespoons" and "In the Days of the Caveman" showcase the band's versatility, with intricate instrumentation and clever wordplay. The band's ability to switch effortlessly between upbeat and sombre moments keeps the listener on their toes, never quite sure what to expect next.

While some may find the band's unconventional style off-putting, fans of alternative music will appreciate the unique sound that CRASH TEST DUMMIES bring to the table. "God Shuffled His Feet" is a testament to the band's enduring talent and creativity, cementing their status as one of the most intriguing acts in the industry.

About the artist

Crash Test Dummies

Hearing the deep, gravelly voice of Brad Roberts can transport you to a world where whimsy meets melancholy, and there's no better vessel for delivering his unique brand of musical storytelling than Crash Test Dummies. Hailing from the frosty lands of Canada, Crash Test Dummies burst onto the scene in the early '90s with their breakout hit "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm." With its bizarre lyrics and Roberts' unmistakable baritone vocals, the song quickly became an anthem for the weird and wonderful. But don't be fooled by their quirky exterior – Crash Test Dummies are musicians of the highest calibre. Roberts' songwriting is both clever and contemplative, weaving tales of love, loss, and everything in between with a sly wink and a knowing smile. Their music is a melting pot of influences, blending folk, rock, and even a touch of gospel into a sound that is uniquely their own. Tracks like "Superman's Song" and "God Shuffled His Feet" showcase the band's ability to craft catchy hooks while still delving into deeper, more introspective themes. With a discography spanning over three decades, Crash Test Dummies have proven themselves to be true musical chameleons, constantly evolving and surprising their listeners with each new release. So next time you're in the mood for a bit of musical whimsy, pop on some Crash Test Dummies and let their offbeat charm transport you to a world like no other.
