This is an AMAZING album! Every song is sure to please! Evan, Jens, Tony and Matt are some of the hottest, most talented artists around and this album proves it! If you are looking for funky, energetic, soul filled, rockin' new tunes, then this is the band for you! Check out their website to see if they are headed your way for some live music! Trust me- they are ready to rock! -G

This CD is one of the best I've heard in a long time. I actually enjoy it more and more every time I hear it! Their live shows are also awesome!

I never expected this sound coming from such a band - sharp lyrics combined with West Coast rythmys make SOME of the songs excellent. However, I hated Helmet Party -the lyrics just didn't seem to work too well with the sound. A good CD - you oughta have it, but be prepared to be surprised with this eclectic collection of great songs! Keep up the good work, Munkafust!

This is the best album Munkafust has released since their initial offering, "Way Too Much Inertia" (still my favorite). The opener, "Control of My Heart," along with "Feel My Pulse" and the title track, "Down For Days," stand out among this ecclectic collection of songs. Some others ("Yeah Yo," "Helmet Party") are a little too schticky for my taste, but musically they are solid tunes. The chorus of "Helmet Party" is strong--unfortunately, it is dragged down by the subject matter.

Overall, I gave this album three stars for solid musicianship (thank the Lord for that UCSB music education!) and a few standout tracks. Upgrading the intellectual level of some of the content might have made this a four-star affair.

For the time being, I'll enjoy this album for what it is and keep listening to "Way Too Much Inertia." [keep up the effort, Evan]

These guys sound like nothing else out there today. They are fresh with a great groove. A must for modern rock fans.
