5.0 out of 5 stars Holy Cr&p. These Guys Bring Hardcore Back, March 16, 2006

Now I have seen some reviews that say that the Bronx genre of music has been done before. Well.... yeah! It is hard to find a total original band anymore. Talk to any musician and they have influences and they will try to emulate what they like. Now for the Bronx. These guys do what alot of old hardcore bands did that have gone soft or over-produced. These guys simply go 1000 miles and hour with all the angst that the old HC bands did. Yeah I hear a large list of bands in these guys and I love it! No candy pop "radio friendly" punk here. Just good old HC. Yeah, they may look "glam" but, the command respect once they start playing. This is no Celebrity Skin or Janes Addiction. This is almost like the Freeze, Gangreen, Jerrys Kids, Minor Threat, 7 Seconds (without the ewwhhs and ahhhs) and as another said SNFU (old), Hot Snakes, Drive Like Jehu. I think you get the idea. If like Hardcore and remember what it used to be, you need this album!

I consider this to be one of my top ten favorite punk records released this decade. It's packed with so much energy and catchy song writing, as well as a healthy dose of rock and roll, that it can't help but get you all pumped up and singing along. When I first bought it, I think I played it about ten times in a row straight through and had the same kind of feeling I had when I first played The New Bomb Turk's "Destroy Oh-Boy!" You know, like who is this band and why doesn't everyone know how fantastic this record is? Fantastic record and great live band. I just saw them Saturday night for the second time, the singer was out in the audience with the crowd singing along to the hits of this record, inviting kids on stage to dance, and really putting on a show.

5.0 out of 5 stars Who cares what record label they're on?, March 21, 2006

People are complaining that they're too glam and on a major label (OMG! A major?!?). Judging a band by the way they dress and the label they're on is lame. As cliche as this sounds, the music is what should be judged. I saw these guys live and I was convinced that they have whatever it is good bands have. They were loud, entertaining, and played an awesome show even though the crowd wasn't very large. The singer was jumping in and dancing with the teenagers and spouting drunken rants in-between songs. Everytime I listen to this cd it reminds me of the good times I had that night. Awesome band, awesome cd. Just kick back and rock out. Don't let the superficial stuff get in the way. Don't listen to the stuck-up hipsters that plague the scene.
