Andrew W.K. - I Get Wet (2002)Big. Dumb. Rock.
That's the best way to describe Andrew W.K.'s classic 2002 debut, I Get Wet. What makes this album so spectacular is the fact that it refuses to take itself seriously. Andrew and his band assembled an absolutely fun collection of rave-ups that go right for the jugular.
They don't let up even once over the twelve tracks on the album. It's that ferocious.
If you're looking for soul or heart, it's not here. Just complete insanity... and a man armed with a keyboard and thousands of dollars of unnecessary production.
That's what's part of it's genius.. and the fact that it's creator is a mammoth of a man who runs around screaming at the top of his lungs and giving everyone in sight a hug when he meets them. Andrew's a special guy, from what I hear. If you don't beleive me, he's a panelist on some VH1 show. Check it out.
Three of the songs on the album include the word "party". I think that says enough about this album. Just find it. Even if you have to steal it. When you do, turn it to eleven... and enjoy the madness.
