 - Pretty good.These guys are weird and talented. The whole CD cracks just about everyone I know up. Rating:  - Better than the showI downloaded this for my husband who LOVES the show. It was a surprise and he said its even better than the show with the live music that is on it. Rating: - The BellsThese guys are really funny! I gave this CD and the first season of "Flight" on DVD to my husband for his birthday. I was excited that I got a DVD and CD as a package and for the same price as just the DVD in the stores, plus I got super saver free shipping. Rating: - Great sampling of FOTC wit When FOTC's show first came out, I was instantly sold. I ordered this EP and their 'Folk The World Tour' (live album) from SmokeCDs. Both of these albums have their own unique edge. This one (Distant Future) will whet your appetite for FOTC Season 2 (WTF?) and remind you why you enjoy their show so much. While I wish either this or the 'Folk The World Tour' album contained the studio/show tracks (i.e. for songs like BOOM!, Robots, etc.), these are still pretty good--especially for a (mostly) live album. You can also get free mp3s off their site--google 'em and you'll find a few not on either album. With the live show recordings, there's a great freshness to their banter that illustrates just how talented these guys really are (esp. on the fly). Buy this...and don't forget to check out their 'Folk The World Tour' album, too! Rating: - The Greatest Album of the Century By Any Artist(s)"The Distant Future" is the greatest album of the century by any artist(s) bar none! Original. Vibrant. Touching. Funny. Smart. The first four songs are small gems that shine brighter than anything churned out by so-called mainstream musical artists. The last two cuts require more of an acquired taste, perhaps for fans of the HBO series, but their quirkiness does little to diminish the overall album's charm and polish. If I've learned anything in life about meeting women, I learned a fail-proof opening line from song four: "You're so beautiful, you could be a part-time model." Rock on, Flight of the Conchords! Buy this album or risk dying sad and alone in a cold tiny studio apartment full of Celine Dion and Mariah Carey albums and a broken record player...
