5.0 out of 5 stars
Two stars?! Was that guy on crack?, April 3, 2006
This review is from: 924 Forestville St. (Audio CD)
This album is awesome! It's got energy, melody, and some great guitar solos. It will definitely be a mainstay in your record collection.
Some songs to look out for are: Get It Rite, Sleep, Huge Balloon, Stalking Stuffer, Warren's Song Part 2, Can't Make Me, Skanky Love Song, J. Weed, and Rod's Post.
There's something for everyone on this album. Sleep and Stalking Stuffer are reminiscent of early 90's alt-rock, J. Weed is a ska song, Get It Rite and Rod's Post are fast-paced punk anthems, and Dodge Ball, Missing Link, and Warren's Song Part 1 will be favorites of emo fans. Can't Make Me is a funny song with a banjo part.
It's a real shame that this album is out of print...

5.0 out of 5 stars
Power Pop-Punk of the highest order, September 14, 2008
This review is from: 924 Forestville St. (Audio CD)
I always loved this album and thought these guys should have gotten more attention... If you grew up when I did you would have popped this disc in right after listening to Weezer's blue album or Greenday's "Dookie" and not been disappointed.
This record is essentially a good combination of simple yet interesting melodies, goofy/funny lyrics and solid powerpop/poppunk energy.
The difference between this and so many other bands from this era are Bracket's hooks. This may have been the catchiest record of the 90's pop punk explosion.

This album IS terrible, May 13, 2008
This review is from: 924 Forestville St. (Audio CD)
Typical altpopunk of the early 90s, a tired genre, but easily exciting when it is done right, but it simply isn't done right here. If I could give half stars, I'd give it 1.5 stars, but I chose 1 because, its not good. Sounds like guys who have day jobs.
