4.0 out of 5 stars Copied but never duplicated May 17 2004
Format:Audio CD
Das Efx was one of the most immitated artists in the early 90's.
Lyrically and style wise they were as original as it comes.
Even there look was unlike any other. There are a few filler songs on this cd. But They want efx, Microphone checker
and Straight from the Sewer are 3 classics.Even the videos
for each of these songs stand the test of time in there originalty.

And if your tired of rap songs and videos looking and sounding
like commercials for whatever products these new artists are endorsing. Then You will love Das Efx. From the parka jackets to the gas masks there is nothing pretty about these cats. This
is music for men made by men before all these artists catered
to females (ll.cool j) .

All in all this is a classic album. That no real hip-hop fan
should be without.

4.0 out of 5 stars A supercalifragilistic tic-tac-toe Jan 17 2004
Format:Audio CD
Das EFX style is pretty different from anything else I've heard. The closest comparison I can think of is Busta Rhymes back in his Tribe Called Quest days. Overall this is a very up-and-down album, but Mic Checka and They Want Efx are two of my favorite hip-hop tracks of all time, and are well worth the purchase price. Both songs have outstanding lyrics that somehow still manage to get stuck in my head to this very day. Jussummen and Straight From Da Sewer are also solid tracks, though by no means great. The rest of the songs on the CD are pretty irrelevant, although there are a few catchy lines here and there.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best early 90's rap album ever!!! Jun 26 2003
Format:Audio CD
Das EFX come from NYC to release a 1992 album called "Dead Serious." Their lyrics refer to anything in pop culture including Chubby Checker, Thundercats and Gladys Knight & the Pips, including some 1st grade stuff. Their hits, "They want EFX," and "straight from the sewer" have become absolute classics on this CD. I admire this CD and i listen to it when i get a bit tired or lonely.
