The 12th full length comedy music album by 'the great Luke Ski' features his Logan Award winning parody about struggling to lose weight, "Candybars". He also pays tribute to "The Mandalorian", the women of "Star Wars", "The Twilight Zone", "Supergirl", "The Flash", "Adventure Time", and greatest animated series in the history of Cartoon Network, "Mighty Magiswords" (on which Luke was a storyboard artist, writer, voice actor, and songwriter for 3 years).
As the title implies, many of the tracks on this album are very specifically about what has been going on in Luke's life during the 8-and-a-half years that have passed since his last album. The best of times (living the animation life, and making songs for the FuMP dot com and running the MarsCon Comedy Music Track) and the worst of times (trying to make a living in the gig economy, navigating being single again in the 2020s, and the skin-melting heat of southern California).
And as a continuation from his previous album "4th Grade Talent Show" there are 7 new "Dumb Parody Ideas" tracks for you to enjoy / be reviled by. In any case, as Paul Sabourin put it during the "Paul & Storm" concert at FuMPFeST 2016, it's all "Needlessly Meta".
Includes unlimited streaming of Needlessly Meta
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

about
A parody of the poem "It's Time For Winter To End" by Rob Magnuson, performed by sketch comedy group Cirque du So What? (Devo Spice, ShoEboX of Worm Quartet, Chris Mezzolesta of Power Salad, and the great Luke Ski), about why summer sucks.
It's been 6 years since Cirque du So What?, the sketch comedy foursome comprised of FuMP mainstays Devo Spice, ShoEboX of Worm Quartet, Chris Mezzolesta of Power Salad, and the great Luke Ski, has posted a new sketch comedy track here at the FuMP. Well, in this age when the majority of people in this country share an opinion that is completely and fundamentally wrong, it's time for us to band together and create art that stands for what's right. Hopefully this piece will open the minds and hearts of the people and help them see the error of their opinions on the matter discussed within.
lyrics
[Luke: Narrator]
It's hot as balls outside.
A summer poem by Cirque du So What.
It's hot as balls outside.
When winter ends, folks squeal with glee
and run around saying "we're finally free!"
I stay inside and crank the A.C..
It's hot as balls outside.
It's hot as balls outside.
On a leather chair you relax and slack,
Sleeping topless all the way down to your crack,
Then sit up and your skin gets torn off your back.
[SFX: *skin getting ripped off someone's back*]
[Chris: YYYYEEEEOOOOOOWWWWWWWCCCCHHH!!!]
It's hot as balls outside.
It's hot as balls outside.
I try not to leave, but when I must Sedan it,
I'll open my Ford and start to fan it,
Because my Mercury is hotter than it's namesake's planet.
It's hot as balls outside.
'Let's head to the beach!' the mass proclaims.
Check out the bikinis on all the dames.
All I see is gingers bursting into flames.
[SFX: *burst of flames*, *flames continue*]
[Devo Spice: AAAHHH!!! AAH! AAH! AAH!]
It's hot as balls outside.
[Devo Spice: SPF 127, MY ASS!!! AAAHHH!!! OW!! MY ASS!!!! AAH!!]
Most TV shows have gone bye-bye,
And allergens let loose and fly
While mosquitoes suck your arteries dry.
It's hot as balls outside.
While scores of drunkards crowd the scene
in line at music festival's latrine,
I'm home making my costume for Halloween.
It's hot as balls outside.
The summer's not the only heat,
Apparent by dogs who tend to greet
By plowing his boner into your feet.
[Dog: *dog humping a leg noises*]
[ShoEboX: GAAAAH!]
[SFX: *breaking glass*]
[Dog: *dog yelps while flying out window*]
[ShoEboX: My shin is not your bitch, you Alpo-slurping pervert!]
It's hot as balls outside.
In summer, you don't need a coat,
But I'd trade that for the swampy moat
Encompassing my taint and scrote.
It's hot as balls outside.
In the blistering heat, the plants won't grow.
All dried and brown, filling me with woe.
But you know what's actually pretty? SNOW!!!
It's hot as balls outside.
If you like summer, enjoy your bliss.
I'll just stand here sweating till I smell like piss
And think up more bullshit poems like this.
It's hot... as balls... outside.
