A long-awaited comeback album! Yay! …wait a minute, this is only the second album?

Christian & the Hedgehog Boys COMEBACK! is the second album by Christian and the Hedgehog Boys, Christian's nonexistent fan band, released in 2009.

Background

After a four-year hiatus and buoyed by his new "relationship" with "Ivy", Christian & the Hedgehog Boys reunited to produce another album, and subject the world to yet more of Chris mumbling over various songs. His tastes appear to have expanded slightly: the first album consisted entirely of pop music, but COMEBACK! branches out into genres such as rap, rock, disco, art rock and R&B.

Notable also is the replacement of Wild Sonichu for Sonic on bass and Punchy Sonichu for Shadow on drums. While a newfag would think that Chris forgot that they were in the band, a true C&HB fan knows that Sonic left the band due to artistic differences, and is now pursuing a solo country music career, while Shadow died of a cocaine overdose. Also depicted is Layla Flaaffy; it was later revealed in the Ivy Q&A that Chris intended her to be the band's stage manager.

This is notable as Wild's first musical appearance where he departs from his Sit 'n Spin background.

Reception

While critics applauded Chris for upgrading the quality of the music he shouts over from shithouse to slightly less shithouse, the album was an absolute bust, even in Molvanîa where Chris is lauded as a national pop icon.

Critics were also quick to notice how the audio quality on the album is even worse than on the last.

Fans of Wild Sonichu's mastery of the Sit 'n Spin were disappointed to hear Wild being forced to play the inferior guitar, which may have affected the quality of his musical contributions. Fans also claimed that Punchy Sonichu could not live up to the legacy of Shadow the Hedgehog.
