After exploding back onto the music scene with Engine of a Million Plots, Five Iron Frenzy quietly released a digital exclusive album of joke songs and tracks recorded from their Kickstarter rewards entitled The Second Coming of Cheeses.
Like the title suggests, this is basically a sequel to the 2003 B-sides and rarities compilation Cheeses of Nazareth. Both are about random topics and filled with short, nonsensical songs. Where they differ is their cohesiveness. Cheeses of Nazareth varied wildly in sound quality from track to track, jarringly bouncing between B-sides, live tracks, joke songs, and demos, but The Second Coming of Cheeses is more unified in quality and purpose (or lack thereof). But don't be mistaken that any of these songs sound anything alike. The styles shift dramatically from reggae to gothabilly to ska with little notice, but all of these songs fit together. In this sense, it is reminiscent of the rock operas on Quantity is Job 1, but without poking fun at the genre and only one mention of pants.
