I struggle to accurately define placement of either 'Shyga' in Pornpets' discography or any of their albums. Increasingly, Pornpets are content with making pretty much the same working formula work on well enough to warrant little to no change in style or approach.

Australian weirdoes rocking hard, and they're not called Queen Bizarre and the Macromolecular Cougar?! Australia now has its fair share of bands with ridiculous names (looking at you Arctic Kiss Hurricane) that invoke garage rock intensity while adding a sufficient share of hazy atmospheres for the doobies to be welcome. This one-sentence description could be summarized as: it's fucking fun, and it only begs to be played live.

Psychedelic rock as a whole has never rubbed me the right way. This is one of the few (honestly only) times where I believe older really is better. There are very few times a year where a psychedelic rock blows my mind. Even bands like King Gizzard never really do much for me because of how taxing their music is to me. However, the fourth album from the Australian four-piece band really brings a fresh breath of air to me. I think it has to do with how fun and easy this album is to listen to. I believe many psych bands today take themselves way too seriously?which is ironic because of where this genre came from. Psychedelic Porn Crumpets makes it sound fun and easy for 40 minutes with some heavy-hitting guitar riffs, booming drums, and experimental production. Ear candy all over this record and for how ?heavy? it seems, it really is a light and airy listen. My only complaint is how short some of the tracks can be.
