Not as good as Give em the boot 2...., May 22, 2002
I was excited when I saw that their was a new Give em the boot compilation out, as Give em the boot 2, is one of my favorite cd's ever. Although when I played this cd I was sad to hear that the reggae and ska sounds that where on Give em the boot 2 have been substituted for a straight ahead punk compilation. Not to mention that the quality of songs on this album, are nowhere as good as the tracks selected for the two previous Give em the boot cd's. If you are going to get a Give em the Boot cd, buy the second installment, it is much better...

best compilation i own, May 12, 2003
This cd is the best compilation i own. It has a devils brigade song called vampire girl. devils brigade is a psychobilly band which is everyone in rancid except for lars. it also has good tracks from tiger army, lars and the bastards, nekromantix, rancid, distillers,agnostic front, dropkick murphys and some other this compilation is awesome but at the end theres some ska i dont enjoy too much. this cd also contains 2 videos you can watch on your computer. one is dropkick murphys - spicy mchaggis jig and the other is tiger army - cupids victim. this is a very good compilation its well worth 5-6 bucks.i hope they come out with give em the boot 4.

Save your [money], February 18, 2002
Okay, Give Em The Boot I & II were rad, but this pulls up far short of those comps. The best bands - Rancid, DKM, LFB, US BOMBS - all have songs on here that have been previously released, so there's nothing value-added from them. Yeah, Cupid's Victim is a really good song and the videos aren't bad, but they're readily available on the net, so, again, nothing new. I'm down with different types of music but the ska on here is weak and the pyscobilly stuff is unlistenable. Devils Brigade is a disappointment. The only bright spots are the good effort by Duane Peters & the Hunns and the rad track "Give Em The Boot" Originally I'd heard this disc was going to include a previously unreleased song by LFB and a new video by Rancid, which would have made it much better. Even if the bands on this record had rerecorded different versions of released material, there would be something new for fans. There wasn't even a sticker included like with the last comp. Save your [money].
