It's been proven that music can be big business for those with even the slightest degree of talent. But what if one has no degree of talent? Well folks, that's been done as well, but the point is the All Mighty Senators, with their combination of hip-hop, funk and jazz, is a dismal reminder of what happens when a bad singer gets put with a good band. The one positive thing that can be said for the Senators is they know how to play their instruments. The album pulls off some rocking guitar riffs, pumpin' bass, smooth brass and the grooving sounds of synthesizer and percussion to pull it all together. With the music providing the band its spine and strength, it all comes down to how the lead singer Landis Expandis sounds, and he fails to impress. Expandis has quite a set of lungs, hearing how he screams his simplistic rants, occasionally inserting his goofy falsetto for funky effect. The lyrics, written by the group collectively, are laughable. Those adept to tuning out bad lead singers perhaps could appreciate the musicianship present here. Others should check out the overall superior and similar sound of The Bloodhound Gang.
