 Absolutely the worst album I've ever bought..., November 25, 2008

The music is worn out, the lyrics completely inane (where for art thou, Rock Lobster?) I'd rather listen to a dentist's drill. In fact, I'd rather get a root canal than listen to this again.

I will keep it simple, short and sweet. These tunes totally took me back to when I first heard the yellow album. This one just has that feel like it's 1979.

If you like the B52 sound at all then you will love this cd. The original line up is in fine voice and witty as ever. There are sexual innuendos from start to finish on this album which will keep you smiling as you listen to the great beats that make your body move without thinking. Its a great party album. It will keep or put you in a good mood and get your energy up. Although there is not quite a Love Shack or a Rock Lobster, every song is good, no duds. The song writing is first rate musically along with super fun lyrics. Well done, highly recommended.

Wow. Great job b-52's. This is a delirious sex-party dance jam from start to finish. The production is impeccable. They totally nailed the guitar sound. The songs are different enough to be interesting. Fred and the girls sound great. What a surprise. Buy it and dance.

I would never have thought that after decades of music and a long "break" that The B-52's would suddenly release an album in 2008 and it would be their most solid overall effort in their entire career. They have so much good material from their previous efforts and the songs on "Funplex" fit in perfectly with them. Highlights for me include "Deviant Ingrediant", "Pump", "Funplex", and "Juliet of the Spirits" although I have to say that there isn't one song I don't like. "Ultraviolet" and "Hot Corner" are other highlights. The album is forward-thinking while still respecting the past and when that happens I think everybody wins.
