Tales from a Dinosaur Planet
If there is a better theory about the extinction of the dinosaurs than ‘they blasted off in a rocketship to explore the stars’, then I don’t want to hear it. Some may say that the massive crater in the southwest was the result of an asteroid hitting Earth. But the band MJ Hibbert & The Validators believe it’s ground zero for launching the greatest rocketship in the history of the universe!
But now the dinosaurs are back! And you’ll have to listen to this rock opera to hear the whole story!
Mostly I just like the sound and the concept, but I guess these guys are coming out with a whole album to explain the secret history of the dinosaurs and why they talk like pirates. I’m far too cheap to actually buy the album, but it’s a wonderfully novel idea for music so I thought I’d share. Perhaps it’s your cup of tea. You can follow the link above to download or order the album.
I say go for it. There is worse music out there.

Fun fact: All the artwork is done by one of my favorite cartoonists, John Allison. He’s the creator of scarygoround and its spinoff Bad Machinery. As you can see, he’s quite good.
