Barnes & Barnes: Soak It Up

[Aidanloveskeyboards]

At first i was a little scared to watch any more BB videos because some years ago Fish Heads left me scarred, but the rest of their songs ROCK!

[jollymeanthinkies]

My baby loves Barnes&Barnes!

[casestudyification]

Amazing. Now, wouldn't it had been so much better though, if some record company got ahold of them and beefed up their act? (a little sarcasm there, folks.)

[AudioVisualMatter]

I wish they'd put "Zabagabee" on DVD.

It rubs the lotion on its skin.

It does this whenever it is told.

or else it gets the hose again.

Yes, it will, Precious, won't it? It will get the hose!

Now it places the lotion in the basket.

are they DEVO's long lost brothers?

[yossarian9]

@endorphinvidmaker

Like DEVO crossed with Tim and Eric, maybe.

[artiebarnes]

@yossarian9 maybe....

[MrWoofington]

@endorphinvidmaker They worked with Devo on a couple songs... they were all friends in the 80's L.A. bizarre music scene.

[zerogravitybong]

[dasbacon]

[poppinfresh79]

funny stuff brings back the late 70's and early 80's...my grad year...

[RedwoodTheElf]

Hey, for a band that was formed by Will Robinson (Look it up...) it's pretty dang good

[themattster1991]

This is interesting to say the least. The album was a good album. Not as good as their first, but I thought it was a good record.

[AarHan3]

Annerose Bücklers was also the lady in Devo's "Whip It" video.

[artiebarnes]

@AarHan3 No, different person. Trust me--

Barnes and Barnes go into the bin of UNDERRATED bands. These two guys were one of the first to produce and distribute home recordings. They don't get too much credit and are usually just written off as a novelty act but with 'Soak it Up', 'Kodovoner', and 'Amazing Adult Fantasy', they prove that they have great musical ability and a knack for catchy pop songs. Long Live B&B

Wow, finally someone gives Robert and Bill some damn credit!! Trivia: Robert (Artie) told me that he made those costumes himself. Yeah, and anyone who thinks they're "novelty" or just "comedy" needs to hear some of the tracks on "Sicks" or "Amazing Adult Fantasy," or the stuff they did with Wild Man Fischer.

I LOVE THIS!!!
