Contents Dislodged During Shipment

Contents Dislodged During Shipment is an album by American rock band Tin Huey, released in 1979 by Warner Bros. Records.

Even though their cover of the Monkees' "I'm a Believer" was a minor hit, Contents Dislodged During Shipment was a commercial failure and Warner Bros. dropped the band in early 1980.

"[1] Trouser Press said that "their blend of blues, jazz and progressive rock is hilariously unique, offering up a warped vision of Middle America.

"[3] Writing for The New York Times in 1979, John Rockwell commented that the album "lacks the sharp, rhythmic impetus of both Devo and Talking Heads, the sort of structurally spare bands that would appear to be its most immediate inspirations", continuing that "the record still has merit, and the band's direct linkage of the pulse of rock with the drive of industrial‐age machinery [...] is especially striking.
