Action Packed Adventure!, also known as Action Packed Adventure! (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), is the debut album by the rap group Yaggfu Front. It has been compared to the Pharcyde & Das EFX for its quirky and somewhat playful lyrics. The first single was "Left Field". The title track is about the group's efforts to obtain a recording contract.
Critical reception
The Independent wrote: "The montage of found-sounds that separates the tracks—answerphone messages, fake announcements etc.—may be directly descended from De La Soul, but the vocal style here is less relaxed, more in the vein of speed-rappers like Das EFX. Fitting syllables to beats like complex jigsaw puzzles, their incessant rap style can ultimately be as wearing as their vocabulary is impressive." DJ Mighty Mi, in a review for The Source, praised the production of the album, highlighting the "true basslines and nicely-filtered loops", and commended the group for their "left-field lyrical approach".
