A Guided Tour of Chicago,
By MRnuTty (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Guided Tour of Chicago (Audio CD)
When I bought this cd, I'd never head of Slapstick or Broadways. I was at the record store and, unknowingly picked this cd, other than some of their better reviewed cd's. I didn't know what to expect, but I couldn't have been more impressed.
The lyrics, mostly about their life in Chicago, frustrated with life, pissed at the cold weather, drinking, even how modernized the world's becoming. The Lawrence Arms wrote great lyrics dealing with every type of life experience, they left none of their feelings out of this album. Brendan's singing sounds great on the album. Not great as in he sings good, or the recordings are special, but his raspy voice kind of molds around the music, and his unique voice becomes a character itself, adds substance to his words. After buying the other Lawrence Arms albums, A Guided Tour of Chicago is the one I keep coming back to. What hit home for me was the lyrics add such a human aspect to a punk cd that you believe every word Brendan (and Chris on one track) sings, not like other plastic punk bands of today. The Lawrence Arms did a great job on this album, and I reccomend this to everyone.

An incredible display of the Lawrence Arms abilities,
By Mike Golen (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Guided Tour of Chicago (Audio CD)
This is still my favorite album by them and in my opinion one of the best albums I own. This band's live shows, and energy are spactacular. Just mix A whole lot of beer, some politics, laziness, technology, arguments, and cold weather and you get this album. Its just f-cking incredible. Buy it.
