Face Down, Ass Up [Explicit Lyrics]

Amazon.com
Amazingly, this 1980s icon of sexual loathing and resentment has managed to keep his career going into the new millennium. All of the things the comedian is known for--misogyny, racism, free-floating anger--are on full display here. For Dice Clay, sex is an instrument of domination and humiliation. His riffs on the subject are repetitive and dull; the man makes any sex act sound as exciting as a plumbing maneuver. The comic's nasty remarks about Asians on "K2Y/China Diner" are as clichéd as they are awful. On "Midgets 2000" he goes after midgets with inexplicable hostility. Can this rant actually be considered comedy? Face Down, Ass Up's irritated trash talk feels like it goes on for hours. This is the work of one tired, juiceless bad boy. Dice Clay, or at least his comic persona, appears to be played out. --Ian Conde

Andrew Dice Clay - 'Face Down, *ss Up' (Capitol) 4 1/2 stars.......2007-05-08

Review # 46. Most recent release I've seen in stores or online from the foul-mouthed comic from Brooklyn. After listening to 'Face Down', I was fully convinced the 'ol Diceman still has it. Snippets here I liked best were "Big Head", "Midgets 2000" (freaking hilarous!), "Banana Nose", "KY2 Wife" (have always loved the way this guy purposely mis-pronounces some of his words), "Pencil Room" and "Don't Marry Her". Subjects here tackled include dating a geek girl's mom, refusing to marry a girl JUST because she tells you she loves you and avoiding society's low lifes. Can't BELIEVE it that now, twenty years later after I hear Dice Clay mention, "hickory dickory dock, your mom was..." I'm still in stitches. Highly recommended. At least a hundred laughs on this CD release.

Living Legend.......2007-02-18

Dice proves why he is a living legend. He went and continues to go into realms where the political correcto's wont. They used to say Lenny Bruce was a sicko, a deviant, a drug head and now, years later, he is labeled a genius. Dice was always a genius and will continue to be a genius. One of the best ever.

Very Good, but the hard to find FILTH was better!.......2006-03-05

This album basically is a remake of the three CD set "FILTH" that came out a year before that was only available through DICE's web site (which has since been removed). The material here is good if you are a real DICE fan and appreciate the growth of his act and are not locked into hearing a new nursery rhyme update every album. He has moved on from the gimmickery of his act. While he still uses the pseudo-italian brooklyn bad boy image as his signature look, its clear his act has developed into something more. The material has gotten a more Lenny Bruce/Lewis Black edge to it-less gimmicky and more based on a slight bit angry comedian who shows that he has more to him than a few sexist jokes and a bit of reworked nursery rhymes.

This album is a lot better than the typical ANTI-DICE crowds and reviewers (like the one from Amazon) give credit for. There is a lot more depth to his comedy than there was a decade ago and a real fan of comedy would appreciate it.

If you can find the 3 CD set anywhere that would be a better choice "FDAU" because of the sheer volume of material. it is probabaly his best work. This album has some great moments and aside from some filler music inserts the album holds up well.

Time For Something New.......2004-12-08

I love Dice...I just started listening to him this year, being introduced with The Day The Laughter Died part 1, a true comedic masterpiece. Dice is a great performer, and somehow people don't catch onto this. I just got Vol. 2 of The Day.. and the people in the audience don't even respond for the most part. I think the best thing a performer can do is make the audience uncomfortable, or to piss them off, and that's what Dice does. Someone compared Dice's comedy to an AC/DC album, that is right on the money, it's in your face and up your ass all the way. The problem with this CD is that he doesn't expand on anything here. First of all, the CD layout is just ridiculous...Dice is an older guy trying to pretend his hair and muscles aren't thinning out, but they are and it shows. The asses on the slutty looking chicks, though nice, really don't have to be what sells this album. The music is rage-inducing, because it ain't music and it ain't good, skip those tracks, no big deal. The act is Dice's Act, no one else could do it, but I think we all know that Dice could be doing it a little better. He's got some killer jokes in here, but it's most likely his weakest album...but compare this to what is considered a good pop album, or just a good album in general in this horrid year of 2004...this is original and you can't find fault with that, if you have the brains to appreciate it. And if you are a guy and you don't like this, wake up, cause you know that beyond the absurdity of the act, there is some truth in there about the ladies and they way us pigs think...but who wants to deal in truth or ugliness....
