Through its 12 wackily titled tracks, like the balearic charmer "Boipeba Praia," it's a blissful ride from a man whose identity continues to evolve.

Then, Wayne dives into his verse with the same kind of staccato, syncopated patter that has become Young Thug's signature, where syllables are simultaneously hyper-enunciated and wackily truncated or elongated depending on the melody.

The image — bizarrely comic and mildly menacing — occurs during the later stages of "Damsel," but it handily encapsulates the tone of a movie that turns the classic western into something wackily eccentric and entertainingly original.

Like Cattelan and Ferrari today, Rosenquist in the '60s incorporated bland, everyday images into his bizarre, juxtapositional compositions, placing seemingly unrelated elements together to form wackily cohesive wholes that transmit how overloading the senses has become an everyday occurrence in an urban and highly industrialized society.

I went over to La Ronda, Quito's famously narrow cobblestone street turned humble restaurant row, stopping for a $1.50 canelazo, an alcoholic cinnamon drink, from the wackily named Exquisitas Empanadas de Morocho del Olímpico, where the young woman ladled it from a pot on a stove and spiked it.

And because the box handles powering LG's insanely thin OLED display, and thus forces the cable binding the two together to do a lot more work, it makes the ecosystem feel more tied together and a little less like the wackily shaped PC tower that the smart box is.

The nightlife impresarios Charlie Gilkes and Duncan Stirling have made a name for themselves with wackily themed bars such as Maggie's, a Margaret Thatcher-inspired disco, and Mr. Fogg's, their imagining of the house that the Jules Verne adventurer Phileas Fogg would have settled in after his travels.

Reception about the show was mixed. The student newspaper at the University of Miami panned the show, calling it too easy and criticizing van Straaten's hosting skills.

Wyatt sings on "Little Red Riding Hood Hit the Road" from his solo album, Rock Bottom (1974), and on "We Did It Again", a "surprising and wackily absurdist" cover of the Soft Machine song from their debut album, The Soft Machine (1968). The version of "We Did It Again" that appears on this CD is a combination of two different recordings of the same performance, one from an audience cassette recording with "a lot of audience reaction, a lot of guitar, thin-sounding drums and bass, and only a faint echo of the vocals", and one from the mixing desk with "almost no guitar, but plenty of drums, bass, and vocals".

A unique, pertinent, significant play by a major playwright.” Kate Kellaway of The Observer wrote “I disliked this bleak, attention-seeking play so intensely that it must be an inverted compliment to its power,” criticising the characters for being unmoving and Ridley for “wackily throw[ing] in a monster, a clairvoyant and UFOs – the supernatural further debilitating credibility.” Kate Bassett's review for The Independent stated that the script was “like several hamfisted plays jammed into one” and that the dialogue was “unconvincing.” The Independent's Paul Taylor, felt that some reviewers had misunderstood Ridley due to his supposed reputation of producing “provocative” work: “It is not Ridley who is desensitised; it is his attackers in their fixed and laminated indignation.

He also praised the film's "wildly original soundtrack". David DeWitt from The New York Times compared the film to the similarly percussive theatrical show Stomp, and called it "a character study mixed with outlandish crime procedural. Everyone’s quite serious about the joke, without a moment of Adam Sandler-style “look at how cute we are” that would only dilute the film’s appeal. Sound of Noise is a dry treat — a solid, self-aware cult pleasure". In her review of the film, Alissa Simon from Variety called it "a delightful comic cocktail of modern city symphony, police procedural and love story ... With the most complex and wackily staged musical numbers since Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s Delicatessen, the pic was far more demanding to make than it is to watch".
