Cheap Thrills is a record club based in Montpelier, Vermont. We get together every so often to listen to a vinyl record nobody in the group has ever listened to or even heard of before. While we are listening, we write reviews in Haiku form ( what you see here). Enjoy!

Father Yod and the Source Family - Thought Adjusters
We are all winners
brothers and sisters of God
it's a rebirth purge
Pentatonic beans
hash smoke fog over the bay
bloodshot eyes of God
Forgetting ourselves
why are we still wearing clothes?
my name is now "wind"
All the light is us
we are light, as morning's birth
all the light is us
Through the prism now
we are one, not divided
fear shall dissipate
The apples center
holds the universal chi
sorry Yod, not you
A new religion,
similar to mayonnaise,
how do I join?
How many Jesi
how many universes
apples are the world
False ending false hope
we are strong in our beliefs
whatever they are
Boaz? Who are you
are they special or only you?
the father. The sons
One Yod
I have to confess
I'm carrying your baby
the moon stars and son
Irrevocably
simplistic good intentions
perhaps, same old shit
Calloused vocal chords
scraping universal dust
but no, not really
Flute lusts for woodblock
woodblock ravishes guitar
bass, drum, and voice weep

Heloise and the Savoir Faire - Diamond Dust
This Romance makes me
knock down all candles and dance
around the fire
Beats need to hold weight
the synths cannot hold themselves
tightly to the right
Wasabi glitter
a fabulous flash of heat
senses lit ablaze
The bubbles go pop!
Floating inside an assumed
Vampire rhythm
A void has been cleared
the new vogue is in our hearts
thumping magenta
My pelvis is hot
pressed in the interior
you're inside with me
Your candy voice licks
my dull heart surfaces through
and I dive in it
Sparkling happy
a fluttering firefly
Boom Boom Heloise
Pink pixel raindrops
tongue on the midi keyboard
dystopia dance
Glow demon shimmies
angelic vixen struts
wing open thigh wide
Tokyo. Munich
Paris,New York, L.A., Rome
Berlin, London, here
You will command us
under the influence of
$20 drinks
We still hear these songs
several years later when
we wear silver suits
Sounds a lot like what
I used to listen to in
the nineteen eighties..
Minus the Macbook,
plus some literary nods,
minus autotune

Elmo Williams and Hezekiah Early - American Made
Big Legal Mess Records
It's a dive in here
and the sun will be up soon
lets hop that next train
roll the drums on through
make it whats made history
smoke them tunes for good
one two three four one
announce proclaim major chuff
two three four one two
fives and sevens tough
for bone pleasing four four time
I'll tap out each beat
march march heel stomp march
make yourself a regular
moving drum hand kiss
harmonica crows
down upon the rolling train
a storm approaches
hot summer "fuck you"
volume, we turn up like fleas
and your momma too
I'mma get on it
push a pig through prison bars
sweaty like beer can
Its a swamp party
humid night, beer bottles sweat
three girls on your mind
