On Tuesday I bought only one new record and that record was Incredibad from The Lonely Island. You may not know them by name but you have definitely seen Andy Samberg on SNL as well as "Dick in a box" with Justin Timberlake. They released a cd full of comedy songs as well as a dvd with SNL digital shorts that accompany the songs. The record surprisingly good both comically and musically. All of the songs fit into a different genre and play off each genre's sound and stereotype. "Jizz in my pants" is pure electro-trash and the lyrics are clearly hilarious (as everything dirty often is). "I'm on a Boat" features T-Pain and has a very common (yet awesome) beat. The song is not as overtly funny as others but when you realize they are rapping and cussing about simply being on a boat it's hilarious. The best line is "Fuck trees I climb buoys mother fuckers". Some old favorites like "Lazy Sunday" and "Dick in a Box" are on there as well. "Boombox" featuring Julian Casablancas is probably my favorite because having Julian sing a hook is like magic and the song is also very catchy. (I think you can stream the song on Rollingstone.com)
I would recommend buying it, on itunes you get all the tracks and videos for only $12 or something like that. Below are a few links, enjoy...
