Essential Albums
- For all the capering looseness on this debut from Kiwi comedy duo Flight of the Conchords—the futuristic ad-libs on “Robots”, say—it’s the loving craft and precision of these musical parodies that makes them soar. Whether they’re attempting a yé-yé song with limited French (“Foux Du Fafa”) or imagining a highly-specific Prince jam (“The Most Beautiful Girl (In the Room)”), Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement’s knowledge of, and affection for, their subjects shines through. One downside: you may never be able to listen to beloved records again without giggling.

About Flight of the Conchords
While songs about racist dragons, David Bowie and “business time” may be unconventional fare for most musical duos, they were all part of the special magic of Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement’s utterly idiosyncratic and much-loved partnership. Taking advantage of their shared absurd sense of humour, the friends founded Flight of the Conchords while at university in New Zealand in the late '90s. Their success on stage and on radio led to an HBO sitcom in 2007, in which they played versions of themselves trying (and mostly failing) to make their fortunes in America. With its abundance of wit and warmth, the show earned the duo a passionate cult following, as did a series of sweetly nutty recordings for Sub Pop. Though McKenzie and Clement moved on to separate projects since the show’s last season in 2009, occasional reunions have kept enthusiasm for the duo at suitably sky-high levels.
