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!

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.

This is a really cool album from Grinspoon! "Black Friday" is really cool and so are heaps of other songs. 5 stars.

I AM IN TO ALL FORMS OF ALTERNATIVE STYLES METAL DEATH GRUNGE PUNK BUT I HONESTLY DONT THINK IVE EVER BEEN BLOWN AWAY SO BADLY SO DAMN QUICKLY BY ONE ALBUM. THIS CD HASNT MOVED FROM MY CAR STEREO AND THE ONLY TIME IT WILL IS WHEN I GET A COPY OF THEIR NEW ALBUM EASY...... TOTALLY AWESOME.....I JUST HOPE THEY GET THE RECOGNITION THEY DESERVE...........

GRINSPOON ROCK! Grinspoon is easily my favourite CD, and this is the better of the two CD's (the other ones good too). It's great value for money with 16 great songs (and maybe a limited edition bonus disc with 5 live tracks) and they are all good.

Some of the GREAT songs include Repeat, Pedestrian, Just Ace and Boundry.

Grinspoon are my alltime favourite band and they really rock. I bought this CD about 3 years ago and it is still my favourite CD. Just buy it! NOW!

I like these guys so much you may never understand. Most of the songs are not very long as far as minutes go, but every song starts out rockin' and pulls you in immediately. They put more in a 3 minute song than most bands can fit into 5 minute tunes. These guys absolutely rock and if you dont buy this then you are missing out greatly. No words can explain what I'm trying to get accross. Lets just say that guitars have never sounded soo awsome. Best songs are: Dead Cat X 3, Bad Funk Stripe, More Than You Are, and Champion. The fun doesnt end there. Please buy this so they can afford to keep their musical jobs.

"Guide" definately is a damn fine album. If you dig Helmet, Unsane, or Quicksand, this is in the same vein, although distinguishable.

If you like music hard, loud, noisy, fast, and dig that drop-d guitar, then this is an easy pick up. Get it now, dammit!

Not only is thier musick insane. These are the coolest Aussies I've ever met.

Grinspoon Rock. I have this album and I have heard about their new album that comes out in november '99 and it sounds great! Phil Jamieson is a bit of a gun singer for a skip, and the guitarists are pretty mad too.

A fan who thinks grundge rocks.

I would like to get their new album.
