YIDcore "The Great Chicken Soup Caper EP"
Available on Swell Records (USA) Through Big Daddy Distribution
At first glance, one may be tempted to think that this CD is a joke. Hell, I did at first! Take it from the converted though, it is worth buying, and it is nothing to laugh at. It's been in my CD player since the day I got it and I don't have plans on moving it anytime soon... They are a hybrid of so many different styles within the punk genre... truly the epitome of a crossover band. The catchy lyrics and nifty guitar playing will have you singing along in no time.. But the most enjoyable part ... is the hilarious lyrics. J-Vibe
The
guys in YIDcore may not have made the recent Jews Who Rock tome, but
they're definitely Jews... and they definitely rock: whether yelping
'oi, oi, oi' or 'If I Were a Rich Man', they keep things fast, loud
and furious. TimeOut New York

Ahh YIDcore... perhaps the only that tries to be funny and actually is funny ... The main attraction is a fast, spiteful tune called "Why Won't Adam Sandler Let Us Do His Song?" written about (guess who), after (guess who) refused to let them do a punk-rock version of his "Chanukuh song". I really wanted to hear this rendition of the "Chanukuh song", but this one is almost as good, because it gets back at Mr. (guess who) by concluding with the line "thanks to you my Chanukuh was not much funukuh ... copyright that, bitch". Great stuff. Tim Punk International
YIDcore are four lunatics from Melbourne... I really respect these boys for taking a music genre that has flirted pretty heavily with racism and turning it into a vehicle for promoting multi-cultural tolerance. Uri Geller
