Metacritic reviews

Like many of Claypools bands, Electric Apricot is bound to be a cult hit. I’m just hoping it will have the chance to play before a bigger audience as I feel the film is just plain hilarious and I was extremely impressed at the way Claypool pulled it all together in his first directorial effort.

Generates enough mild humor to keep the spoof rolling, but lacks the commitment and scope.

The most appreciative audience for this lame National Lampoon release likely will be guys in tour buses.

Shot in the same style as “Spinal Tap,” Electric Apricot fails to wow in every way possible, but the music disappoints the most.
