Editorial Reviews

When Japanther began five years ago we knew we were on the verge of something new. 1000 shows later, the band enters into legendary territory, naturally combining catchy hooks, heart pounding beats and frenetic energy with DIY aesthetics. Their 5th full length album Skuffed Up My Huffy delivers the goods: from the opening notes of the first track, See Evil, you realize that Japanther have taken it now one step further, and have delivered an album that combines their studio promise with their razor live shows. From a basement show to a museum opening, from playing a club to playing with synchronized swimmers. You can be assured they'll cross your towns borders soon enough: in the last year alone Japanther have toured 3 times around the U.S. and Canada, gone all over Europe and to Australia!! So be ready. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

If you like loud, distorted, poppy, punk mixed with oddball samples, buy this album. Even if you don't like it, buy it anyway and play it for your friends and you will seem very hip and cool. They sing into telephones while they play live, for crying out loud!

4.0 out of 5 stars Lo-fi, November 16, 2010

In my eyes, Japanther can do no wrong. If I were in high school, still had an edge of teen angst, I would listen to these guys non-stop.

5.0 out of 5 stars As usual a prep for the live sh**, January 3, 2010

I been listening to them and goin to shows since 02 or 03 and the only thing better than a Japanther album, is a Japanther show. You get the album listen to it and you know which songs will kick arse the next time they are in town. I never seen a crowd go ballistic like they did when $100 cover came up and I seen tons of underground punk band. Most I can't remember. I was traveling around in Dunedin, New Zealand and feeling a bit homesick after being on vacation for 10 months when I found this album in a cd shop. I never would have thought I'd find it there. It lifted me out of the funk and provided the perfect music for all the manual labor I did while traveling. They are The Ramones of the 21st century. Like the Ramones, the album's short. Maybe 30 minutes, but it's their most cohesive and accomplished album. Dump the body in Rikki Lake is still my favorite.
