Grinspoon are 1 of my favorite bands. I got this CD when I was holidaying in the U.S. And it kicks ass. It may not have "Just Ace" but there are alot of other great songs. I would recomend this album to every American who likes alternative or Rock music. So buy this CD now!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Aussie Rock Album Ever, January 25, 2005

If you like Helmet, Primus, Godsmack, Snot, Korn and such, get this CD ASAP. You will not waste a cent. "Post Enebriated Anxiety" is definitely following the roots of Helmet and White Zombie. "More Than You Are" is a great punk-metal anthem to listen along with, but my favorite is "Repeat", in which the tune sounds a lot like Snot's and Helmet's offspring. "Black Friday" is also a good song. A definite must-have for any post-grunge or alternative metal fan.

This CD rocks! This group of hardcore Aussies light a fire, with some of the hardest rocking, and consistently fastest music I have ever heard. Most of these songs clock in at under 3 minutes and make your blood boil. Songs like 'Postenebriatedanxiety', 'Black Friday', 'Dead Cat X3', 'More Than You Are', 'Railrider' and 'Pedestrian' will get you speeding ticket after speeding ticket. There is one song on here that is a slower groover but it still really rocks, 'Bad Funk Stripe'; check it out.

From song to song, there isn't a lot of variation or originality. But, with killer riffs and breakneck speeds on 2 1/2 minute songs; WHO CARES?!? You've got barely enough time to think about it before the next song comes on.

If you dig some hardcore punk tunes, I highly recommend this CD to curb your cravings.
