Editorial Reviews

Green vinyl LP pressing. This Shit Is Genius is a collection of out-of-print seven inch single and compilation tracks recorded between 1994 and 1997 by these hook-setting Minneapolis monsters of melodic mosh. Dillinger Four are loved by skateboarders and anarchists alike for their butt-rocking style and humor-lined politics. 14 tracks. 2009

5.0 out of 5 stars really, it is genius, December 18, 2002

Quite possibly the best band out there today, the Dillinger Four manage to write infectious songs that never lose there edge and contain social-political lyrics that always manage to get straight to the point without ever sounding preachy. Every song on this album (every song they've ever done for that matter) is a certifiable winner. This cd is a combination of all of their previous vinyl only releases and chronicles the beginnings of one of the greatest punk bands to ever walk the face of the earth.

5.0 out of 5 stars The current kings of Pop Punk, October 11, 2008

Any fan of Pop punk (Lookout style) and 80's hardcore, if they don't already, MUST own this collection of b-sides. This band has quite simply mastered the pop punk sound. Nothing too bubbly and nothing too post punk. Imagine Poison Idea and the Parasites. That's the best way for me to sum them up. The songwriting is ridiculously challenging as well. Just listen too them.

5.0 out of 5 stars How can you not love D4?, December 4, 2008

This review is from: This Shit Is Genius (Audio CD)

So I had this CD for awhile and I made a really long road trip to go get my puppy dog who was to be named "Bob". I listened to this CD the entire time, and now "Bob" is "Dillinger" (sometimes Retard #1, and reallly "Bob" did not fit him but "Dillinger" very much does). I love Dillinger Four, I have for years. My dog loves them too and he told me that this is one of his favorite CD's because when you go see D4 now (or at least the rare times they come to the South) you don't really get to hear these songs.
