This cd would be one of the best punk cds i own, and by the god do i own a lot. Whilst not doing anything really different, they some how manage to sound fresh, which is what punk needs in these days of 3 chord Blink 182's. Some compare them to Rancid and thats fair enough but personally i think they beat Rancid at their own game, a big call yes but listen and you will know. Favourite tracks are Microphone, The will the message, and Where we gather. In a world of hip hop metal its good to here some real music thats close to the heart. Punk rock will never die if bands like this keep coming up. Rock On!

I like Rancid and Bombshell Rocks and I say this is punk music at some of it's finest. Back to the old school spirit of the scene. That's the feeling I get when I listen to this, I feel like it's the good ol days before Greenday. It's great stuff and it's good for reliving some old memories. Punk fans this is a must.

This is one of the greatest musical accomplishments ever. The entire album is more 77 than 77. The trax have fast verses, sing along choruses, and intelligent lyrics. This is what The Clash would have sounded like had they been in their prime today. The comparisons of Bombshell Rocks to Rancid derive from the fact that both bands have extremely well written songs, with sublime lyrics that aren't poetic, yet aren't standard thoughts.

The songs average about three minutes/track which is long for punk songs, yet are the perfect length because they are so well written.

Bright Spot is one of the best trax ever, and other standouts include Seven, The Will The Message, Same Streets, Where We Gather, Microphone... the whole disc is unstoppable, and full of instant adrenaline.

Street Art Gallery is far too good to ever receive critical acclaim. There will probably be few albums written that will ever top this one so you might as well get it now and get on with it.

I agree with the other reviewers that Bombshell Rocks does have a little of the style that Rancid use to have but they dont have the same beats that Rancid uses, mostly I think the comparison would come from the lyrics and the lead singers voice. I picked up this album after hearing their song on Punk-O-Rama 4 and it has been spinning in my CD player since then. All the songs rip and if your a fan of bands like Rancid, H2O, 59 Times the Pain, I Against I, etc. then you should check Bombshell Rocks out.

great first album from these guys. wow i still can't get over the fact the sound like the older rancid.

My only problem with this record, which is a problem with all punk rock, is its lenghth. 12 songs and barely a half hour long. Other than that it sounds a lot like Rancid (Lets Go Days). If you like punk rock or Rancid than buy this CD.

even though i dont have the cd, bombshell rocks sound really good....i heard them on punkorama 4 and the song "the will, the message" is awesome...i would get this if you are into millencolin....lata
