Geggy Tah may be eclectic, drawing from all sorts of collegiate rock, but they have a hard time focusing their talents on their second album, Sacred Cow. Careening between jangly pop, tame punk, reconstituted prog-rock and funk, the band covers a lot of ground without coming up with a distinctive sound. Furthermore, the group is undone by their weakness for cutesy, sophomoric jokes - their very attitude makes it seem like they're being condescending to their own music.
Sacred cow may refer to: Sacred cow (idiom), something considered (perhaps unreasonably) immune from question or criticism. Holy cow (expression), a variant idiom. Cattle in religion and mythology, object of reverence, including: Sacred bull, including ancient religions. Bull of Heaven in Sumerian mythology. Auðumbla and Gavaevodata, the primeval cows of Norse and Zoroastrian mythology. Tauroctony, the ritual bull-slaying of Mithraism. Red heifer, a sacred sacrifice in Judaism.
