Music reviews of These Are Jokes
Music Review: "Glitter Is The Herpes Of Craft Supplies."
Rating: 5 Stars
I first became aware of Demetri Martin when I saw his "Person" show on Comedy Central. I immediately bought that show, and found it to be even better with repeated viewings. This DVD and CD combination is from 2006, and is perhaps not as polished as "Person," but is still undeniably comedic genius.
Demetri uses a guitar and little else to tell his off-kilter unique jokes. He is obviously quite bright as much of the humor is quite nuanced and shares peculiar insights, though he never comes across as arrogant or even particularly intellectual; his sense of humor is just plain strange. In the comedian universe he would be diametrically opposed to Larry the Cable Guy.
The package includes an audio CD and a DVD, and includes many extras such as early performances, commentaries, and songs. While I still prefer "Person" (and recommend it highly,) I loved this show, and enthusiastically recommend it to lovers of cerebral, yet offbeat, humor everywhere!
Description of These Are Jokes
This comic has a seemingly endless supply of endearingly off-kilter one liners and an over-active imagination. He's one of the most unique voices in comedy today and has written for/performed on Conan O'Brien, Letterman, and Carson Daly. He's the latest correspondent on The Daily Show with his critiques on pop culture. In 2003, he taped his first stand-up special, "Comedy Central Presents Demetri Martin" which remains one of the highest rated half hours on the network. This release puts all his best material on one CD. The DVD compiles the Comedy Central Presents and a bunch of other secret stuff.Comedic Music CDs
