Mouth Dreams is the fourth mashup album by American musician and comedian Neil Cicierega.[2] It was released on September 30, 2020. Like his three previous mashup albums (Mouth Sounds, Mouth Silence, and Mouth Moods), its source material is primarily Top 40 hits from the late 20th and early 21st centuries, but this time with an emphasis on songs about sleeping and dreams. It marks the musician's first major album release since 2017.[3]
Background
Like his previous mashup albums Mouth Sounds, Mouth Silence, and Mouth Moods, its source material is primarily Top 40 hits from the late 20th and early 21st centuries; he also sampled classical music from the 19th century ("Brithoven" and "Ain't").[1]
Reception
Critical reception of Mouth Dreams was positive. Joseph Earp of Junkee called it Cicierega's "new masterpiece", "his wildest work yet" and "heinous and beautiful in the same measure".[4] The A.V. Club praised it as "so stupid, and so good".[3]
