The Mammoth's third album comes complete with a very unpunny Pork-like title that also functions as a dig at the duo's continuing trip through downbeat hip-hop. And though the recipe here is indeed a bit of laid-back-breakbeat-by-numbers, the duo reach a bit deeper on several tracks. The midtempo acid-psych line in &I'm Not Joking,& the lazy ambient wash that drives Δ's Young Champion,& the Oriental lilt of &100% Polyester& -- all these make Another Day at the Orifice another solid addition to Baby Mammoth's Porkography.
