The Fat Angel Sings

On their first album in 14 years, Champaign, Illinois, rockers Poster Children return with a sharply appealing, politically-charged set. Tracks like “Hippie Hills,” “Better Than Nothing,” “World’s Insane” and “Devil and a Gun” provide the kind of energy that earned them a following in the nineties, but it is the bludgeoning force of the spoken-word title track, which takes direct aim at the current administration, that really leaves a powerful impression. Rick Valentin’s deadpan verses and bellowing choruses still pack a wallop.
