John Henry
They Might Be Giants expands to a sextet on its fifth album,John  Henry. Even with the addition of bass, drums, sax, and trumpet, the focus is  still on the goofy vocals, silly lyrical puns, and accordion-driven hooks of  John Flansburgh and John Linnell, and that is not a good thing. These 20 songs  include a tune that quotes Allen Ginsberg's "Howl," love songs to a  dirt bike and a copy shop clerk, and a song that takes its lyrics from Alice  Cooper song titles. If that sounds like your idea of clever, enjoy.--Jim  DeRogatis
