While MC Honky's origins lie in the playful fringes of alt rock,
I Am the Messiah crosses over into downright goofiness. Mixing post-big beat dance with cocktail lounge-style clichs, Honky (an nom de plume for a veteran recording artist) manages both the anything-goes spirit of
Beck and the weird science of
Esquivel. None of it is remotely serious and occasionally becomes tiresome in its overzealous drive to be clever. Still, Honkys soulfulness and strong songwriting comes through in even the deeply silly "A Good Day to Be You" and "What a Bringdown." Honkys musical gifts are just as obvious here as in his other gig, and the effortless fun he serves up on
Messiah should appeal to attentive fans as well as casual newcomers.
