"Does humor belong in music? I think we agreed on yes, provided the maker(s) of that music can back it up. In judging Menso, it's important to consider its signature series of epic tales following a polar bear who hates his life in Arizona —a quadrilogy that features two sequels and a prequel spread out over the whole LP. While the title track may be the title track, the artwork shows this melancholic mammal set against a city skyline and desert horizon, proving "White Bear" to be the true centerpiece of this Mars Volta versus Henry Mancini release. Together, the four make up a mini mariachi-rock opera the finest of which Phoenix has ever seen... I guess. I've never actually been to or know anything about Phoenix. I also don't know much Spanish, so much of the title track and select other verses remain a complete mystery to me. But still, I feel this possible quintet, occasional quartet, but most of the time trio has given me at least a small insight into the culture of their native southern state. Who knew that got Frank Zappa down there?"-Tiny Mix Tapes
