SWOLLEN MEMBERS - 'Fuel Injected'



Origin: Vancouver, BC
Category: STUFFED CRUST PIZZA
Cherchez La Moose: Moose Tracks is having an early Christmas this year. What can we expect in our stockings from BC duo Swollen Members? Lots and lots of cheese, wrapped with a nice bow. These guys have released some great tracks, so I'm not trying to hate. Fuel Injected was a big hit; pretty much everyone in my high school, including myself, liked it. How were we all so blinded by its cheesiness? For starters, Mad Child's lyrics totally suck in this song. I love his cocky tough-guy I'm-so-good pose/head bop at 1:05 after his wack verse. Prevail isn't at his best either. I cringe when he raps "triple ghetto gold, rocked and rolled" at 1:53. Who wrote these lyrics, Vanilla Ice? The fur coats in the video are ridiculous. That girl at 1:58 is ridiculous. Great chorus, though.
