Synopsis

Album Description
This is Nintendo Punk. Sixteen songs, thirteen about video games, two about junk food, one about freeing the lobsters from the tank at Red Lobster. Gaming songs are about loving Grand Theft Auto 3, being addicted to Aminal Forest, and hating Tomb Raider. Others delve into the inner psyches of fave game characters, like the angst-ridden Rayden on his prom night, a frustrated Renegade lost in the subway, and poor Lolo, faced with the decision of committing suicide (hitting select, to end the game) or living on to fight what he knows is a futile battle. All the important stuff.
 

CD Reviews

A prelude for things to come?

"First,14YOG are certainly not the best musically(Sounding like a cross between Devo and you banging a keyboard in frustration at a music store).But they make up for it in lyrics.Ok,they arn't John Lennon or Kurt Cobain,but dammit they try!The thing that turns out to be the saving grace is that the songs are generally about Video Games.Video games!For the love of Bog,where on EARTH have you heard songs about Animal Crossing or GTA?!Nowhere fool!Also,as the title implies,there could very well be more bands joining in on this.Think of it,these people could do for Nintendo music what The MIsfits did for Horror-Punk."

"There must be two things stated before I go any furthur:

1) Most people are giving judgements based on how they were on X-Play. If every band sounded live like they do on the album, then there's a problem.

2) This is not a band for everyone. You only need apply for the 14 Year Old Girls party if you like bands like The Faint, Gravy Train!!!!, Hawnay Troof, Totally Radd!!, Mindless Self Indulgence, and Atom and His Package.

Now, we begin. 14 Year Old Girls is a very interesting band because they work on two levels: The catchy keyboards and drums get lodged in my brain as I laugh and recall the game they're singing about.

The music is fast, electronic, catchy, and good enough to dance to. This album has inspired me to do the robot on many occassions.

If you're kind of torn on the subject of if you'll like them, scroll up a little. There's 9 thirty second song samples for you. Make your judgement then.

For those who thought these guys were a one-off novelty, you're wrong. On September 28th, their new album, "Strategy Guide" comes out and from what I've heard, it's eight times better than this one.

If you like Nintendo or new wave/keyboard rock, buy this album and support the revolution."
Buy it. You know you want to!

"Ok, yeah. Everyone's being too "examiny" on this album. It's a pathetic piece of work about video games. But, what the hell, it's funny and it works for me. So if your looking for some deep epic album (Like Pink Floyd: The Wall, which I highly reccomend) get the hell away. (And why would you be searching for "14 Year old Girls", ehh?) But, if your looking for music that a sporratic child with chronic ADD would enjoy, look no further."
