Hitting popularity through the soundtrack of the popular movie Juno, Antsy Pants is a collaboration of Kimya Dawson (the other piece of The Moldy Peaches), a few of her friends, and a twelve year-old. Even though Kimya didn’t take the album that seriously, it still managed to sound great.

Antsy Pants is a fun and sweet album that will manage to even appeal to the uninterested. With such a quaint charm, the CD takes you to a warm and cozy place where your problems are too trivial to ever worry about. The lyrics aren’t the deepest but that’s what adds to the appeal of the whole thing. They keep it simple and they do it right. With songs about riding bikes (”The Mission”), falling out of trees (”Henry Kelly”), and vampires without fangs (”Vampire”), the immaturity of Antsy Pants sends out a vibe positive empathy that brings back old times when you were just a kid and your biggest responsibility was coloring in between the lines.

Antsy Pants mostly takes advantage of just a guitar/ukulele, but will seldom whip out the drums, or better yet, their twelve year-old singer, Leo (as heard in “Leo’s Mouth”), for a beat-boxing-style acappella. Kimya Dawson’s soothing voice and soft strumming makes no wonder why they decided to spread her all over the Juno soundtrack.
