EP REVIEWS

MORON SAYS WHAT?!?! - Pop Up (self released) Firtsly, you HAVE to buy this EP if for nothing more than the BEST PACKAGING IN THE WORLD EVER. The CD is a tomato! And tehgatefold DOES pop up. Genius. MSW have garnered a lot attention already beguiling their youth - who didn't love their Wikipedia hit last year? Kicking off the EP with the ode to every teenagers favorite pastime - Sleep; it's a glitchy fuzzy pop mess (in a really good way). Gringo delivers with a ridiculously catchy hook early on in the piece which is cleverly only ever hinted at later in the song. And any song that rhymes "Your texts are so funny, but you're not on Telecom/ Because I spent all my money, all my credit would be gone" has got to win. Epic win. To Nathalie, Touch Me There Again. - Andrew Tidball

..Moron Says What?!- Pop Up (EP)
7/10

Some parts are slightly out of tune, but it’s still absolute pop perfection. I always hoped that Moron Says What?!’s first official release would contain some sort of lo-fi element and thankfully the slightly distorted vocals sound like they were recorded into a old toy microphone. After all, it was a love-affair with their lo-fi recordings that first sparked my interest in the band, and without it, a polished MSW?!?! might sound more like CSS. The cleverly packaged Pop-Up EP, completely individually handmade by the band, opens up like a sandwich with the disc imitating a slice of tomato. The song titles are printed on a pyramid shaped piece of cardboard that rises up when you open the packaging. First song ‘Eat’ is the most disjointed of the four tracks and sounds slightly out of time, however, due to it’s ramshackle nature it highlights each band members individual playing style. The guitar riff on second track ‘Sleep’ is an obvious stand out; a simple yet profound pop riff, it runs throughout the song and leads into third track ‘Gringo’ where a new and equally inventive riff takes over. ‘Gringo’ provides brief evidence that the girls can also write wonderfully quirky lyrics, but the best is saved for last. ‘Nathalie Touch Me There Again’ is easily the best and cleanest track. The only track where the lyrics can be easily distinguished, it’s a schoolgirl style Barbie love song perhaps influenced by Katy Perry’s ‘I Kissed A Girl’. Singing “Nathalie, if I was a boy, I’d have a big crush on you, your hair is so soft”, the song is both charming and delightfully funny, much like the girls themselves. Nick-einstein music journal

I finally got to see the wonderfully-named Moron Says What? who were every bit as good as their gloriously cool name would suggest. Four young women grooving away, kinda CSS/ESG 80s NYC dance vibe…”

"Another in the rising tide of hipster kid bands, these guys are better than most, but we'd still recommend fact-checking anything they sing about."
-Ehren Gresehover

"Caught them opening for So So Modern at an all ages show at Cross Street- a band good enough to blow away Shorecore cobwebs, the four members trade off enough instruments to keep the Brunettes happy, pull off No Wave harmonics and tumble over each others multi-lingual singing, chanting and rapping. About Wikipedia!"
-Real Groove, September '07 Issue.

"Moron Says WHAT?!, with songs about wishing they were Japanese, a Paris Hilton cover, and a song called Wikipedia, Moron Says What?! were my personal hilight from the Convoy on Friday –cant wait to see more of them."
-The Scale, Cheese on Toast.

50 "Top Singles of the year, Moron Says What?!?!, Wikipedia. With a sneaky bassline, Chrome-style guitar work and ultra-relevant lyrics, this (ultra) young Auckland quartet pack more ideas into one song than others have in their careers."
-Real Groove, January '08 Issue

"Young Auckland 4-piece Moron Says What? Opened proceedings for the night, and their infectious, fun dance-pop points to a bright young band on the way up – kudos to the MSW? Crew."
-Review on Architecture in Helsinki.

"Moron Says What? opened up the night with a colorful, fruity set that left the crowd with a mysterious sugar-high"

"Most overrated band of the year: Moron Says What!?"
http://www.what-the-funk.com/archive/index.php?t-2982.html

"Moron Says What?!?! Has a shaky, if charming start, winning the crowd over with their tag-team instrumental duties, vocal interplay and No Wave/Shaggs clang’n’clutter. Solid Rocket Boosters was the hit of the night, the audience gleefully chanting along to the chorus: “You wanna know my vital statistics!”'
-Review on The Conjurours w/The Wilberforces
-Stevie Kaye, Real Groove, January '08 Issue.

"Auckland's most exciting new band come out of the classroom to invade our imaginations and hearts with their songs seemingly deploring and celebrating the menial everyday, concurrently. MSW prove themselves worthy of the premature hype they've received."
-Sarah Gooding,Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood, December '07

The girls' energetic dibly-dably pop is super-duper cute and us at Einstein are their biggest fans.

While CSS were conquering the world last year, Auckland band Moron Says What?!?! were dreaming of one day doing the same. Yesterday MSW?!?! sent us two, brand new, fully mastered recordings. We can report that they are super rad, and exceeded even our expectations.

Moron says What! Is made up by 4 cute teens who are really good at being cute teens. They're from Auckland too which is cool. If anyone can find me a catchier song to blog, I'll blog

Moron Says What ?!?! - Wikipedia (Hyperchild Remix) Everyone's favorite ode to Wikipedia gets hyped up and glitched up to a massive effect. It's lo-fi/hi-fi and I freaking well can't stop playing it!
-Andrew Tidball, Weekly Top 5

“..This is truly a girl band, the members are still in their teens and require a parent to accompany them to gigs. From all accounts, the gigs are a riot and these girls are due to hit the mainstream any second now. I’m totally lurving Wikipedia, the cat not so much…BR>Lita, Bits On The Side

   About MORMON SAYS WHAT?!
I'M SORRY THE PHOTO WAS MAKING THE PAGE ALL WIDE AND I REALLY DIDN'T LIKE IT. FROM NICOLE.. .. .......

this guy liked me for a long time, he was really sweet but kind of goofy. he wore these ugly glasses and was kind of pudgy because of those things i just ciouldnt go for him even though by the end i was considering liking him back. well last month he got a girl friend sad face now hes totally happy with her and hardly talks to me. i feel bummed everytime i see them together. what can i do?
i'm really over weight and am feeling like no boy will ever like me. i've been told i have a great personality and am lots of fun to be with but no one ever says im pretty .i've tried to lose weight in the past and am on a diet right now. but even if i do lose some weight, i will never be skinny like the other girls. do you think that a guy will ever look at me?
i've had a crush on this guy like forever, we're good friends and i know he really cares about me but not that way. how do i notice because hes always telling me about other girls he likes. if he only knew how much my heart breaks when he talks to me about other girls. how can i get him to think of me as more than just a friend
i've been dating two guys at once. for example last saturday one guy came over to my house to watch a baseball game then that night i went out for pizza with the other guy. and last week i meet one guy at the highschool water polo game on another day i went to watch the other one at his soccer practise. ..... .
