4 out of 5 stars PWEI did't get any better than this........2006-03-02

I love this album. Back in the day I had almost all of their albums, each one better than the one before. This one is a culmination of previous styles. Before, they made fun of other pop bands. In Dos Dedos Mis Amigos they took everything they learned from the other bands that they had made fun of before and made an album that had the best of it all, power, melody, social comment, drums, and lots of guitars.
I listened to it again today and this is what came to mind. Dos Dedos Mis Amigos is like taking the family on holiday and everything goes fabulously. The weather is great, the family gets along, the food is marvelous, and you have more fun than you have ever had in your entire life. That kind of vacation only happens once and it cannot be recreated.
They tried to make another album but they knew it could never be as good as Dos Dedos Mis Amigos so, much to Clint Mansell's dismay they gave up and went their separate ways. It was really sad. The end of an era kinda stuff.
Remember to buy the remix album, Two Fingers My Friends if you can find it. You might also like The Killing Joke and The Bolshoi.
I only gave it four stars because the recording is a little distorted. The remix album cleaned it up. Kinda like watching a movie on tape then seeing it on DVD.

5 out of 5 stars The pinnacle of British industrial rap.......2004-02-09

Dear God, I can't believe a band this good never got popular. "Dos Dedos Mis Amigos," PWEI's last album, is an exercise in genre-bending brilliance, sometimes furious, sometimes funky, and often both. The hard-edged sound of industrial is most prominent, but there's also an obvious hip-hop influence and some dashes of metal thrown in just for good measure. Of course, none of these qualities lend themselves to commercial success, but "Dos Dedos Mis Amigos" is easily one of the most intelligent albums I've had the pleasure of hearing in a long time. To steal a quote from Forrest Gump, this album is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you're going to get. And did I mention that they're British? For some strange reason, everything seems to sound better with a British accent.

The politically-charged opener "Ich Bin Ein Auslander," and "Fatman" are ominous in both sound and lyrical content, with aggressive raps backed by thunderous industrial beats that should have Ministry fans grinning from ear to ear. In contrast, the smooth rapping and jazzy tone of "Familus Horribilus" slow things for a more laid-back, even funky, feel. The electrified rave-up of "Cape Connection" is actually danceable, and it's nicely followed up by the dub-tinged atmospherics of the seven-minute "Menofearthereaper." On the masterful "Everything's Cool," Clint Mansell and Graham Crabb alternate their menacing voices over a dizzying musical background complete with snatches of distorted metallic riffage. The angular rhythms of the anthemic "R.S.V.P." are sure to get heads banging in no time, while "Babylon" closes out the proceedings with a quiet, though still eerie, sound.

In conclusion, all I can say is that albums don't get much better than this one. Mainstream music seems to be getting stupider by the minute, so it's really too bad these guys didn't catch on. We could use them right about now. I also recommend Ministry and Strapping Young Lad for fans of this album.

5 out of 5 stars Well Above Average.......2003-08-16

I have not heard PWEI's other work, but from what I have heard, this is their most serious album. Ich bin ein Auslander is a great track that caught my attention on the radio a few years back. I left this CD on the bottom of a stack for some unknown reason and now I can't get it out of my CD player. Reasonably hard or more psychedelic guitar riffs tie in nicely to infectious beats on nearly every track. As noted by other reviewers, the lyrics are solid and insightful. The first two tracks are very energetic, and familus horriblus is all out funky. Underbelly and Fatman are both guitar driven and full of social commentary. Home is more tripped-out and techno but still enjoyable. Cape Connection has a very hard driven beat and would be good in a club. Meanoffearthereaper is SOOOO cool and funky -- occasional spoken word over yet another great beat, with added keyboards to keep it interesting. Everything's Cool is another rocker, and a good one at that. RSVP is my least favorite track; it really seems to be filler to me, though it is tolerable. It is more punk than the rest of the CD and doesn't fit in. The closing track is a slow ambient song that is mellowing if not outstanding. Overall, the quality contained in the first nine songs is great and the last two songs are, well, ok, but they don't detract from the rest of the album. Pertinent lyrics, combined with solid riffing, and terrific beats -- not many albums can claim that. If you can find it, GET IT IMMEDIATELY.

4 out of 5 stars Some Bad With the Good.......2003-07-12

It's always worthwhile to hear boths sides of a product to fully understand what you're buying. Unless you're into a British version of classic Beastie Boy material, this CD from PWEI is the only one from the group worth buying. I say this because of 2 tracks that are near masterpieces of something that still to this day sounds incredibly fresh and hints at extremely profound yet overlooked potential from a band overlooked. Those tracks being "Kick To Kill" and "R.S.V.P." respectively. Both songs are a perfect merge of unforgettable drums with a hint of synthetic beat follow-up and scratchy guitar with studio quality, yet have a live garage band feel. Alone they make this alblum worth purchase as they serve a purpose to excite and raise deep appreciation for something never done as well since from any band in this genre: a techno, punk rock theme that doesn't date itself. Unfortunately, the rest of the alblum is benign, which is strange since it lives up to the past alblums from PWEI on dark, strange techno-rock material that bands like Nine Inch Nails were careful to avoid. They further deviate and make all the more obvious the "whoa, you were on to something" attitude you'll give after a listen of those 2 special tracks. Why they didn't delve further into the magic heard in them is anyone's guess as a few more tracks like so would of easily made this alblum out-shine and leap ahead anything NIN and Trent Reznor had at the time and still haven't seemed to utilize, but because they didn't the techno-rock merge appeal is left in the hands of bands like KMFDM, NIN, etc. whom have just slightly grazed that commercial magic and mainstream capability that "Pop Will Eat Itself" had in the palms of their hands if only for 2 lonely, overlooked tracks in time.

5 out of 5 stars a dark and yet beautiful record.......2003-02-19

i saw this band open for NIN in 1994. they are amazing. the drums are the heart of this band and there are some phat beats and wicked music here. they lyrics are very dark (note to reviewer moforising: the lyrics to FATMAN are "pretty little people throw up to stay thin")
there are other lyrics i love such as "convinced by the mirror that her figure's getting bigger"(from the song underbelly) and "if they come to ethnically cleanse me, will you speak out & will you defend me? freedom of expression doesn't make it allright, trampled underfoot by the rise of the right" (from the song ich bin auslander)
now you see the tone of lyrics. it might not be your cup of tea. it is very bleak but i like that. the music is industrial but still retains a rock edge and is melodic without losing that edge. i highly reccomend this album

"Dos Amigos" marks the final recording from the late great Freddy Fender. Freddy and Flaco teamed up last year for a great collection of songs. This is one that is NOT to be missed. Vaya Con Dios, Baldemar.
