This band is one of the best punk bands i've ever heard. I first heard them at the NOFX concert last january they were great. If you like real punk then check out this cd.

Its a damn shame that these guys aren't as popular as they should be. This band can easily compete with all the popular underground punk bands. Awesome guitar work, fast druming, shout out loud choruses and just catchy, addicting punk rock that will keep you coming back again and again.

Its really hard to pick favorites on this disc since all the songs are awesome, but if I had to choose, my two favorites would be "Automaton" and "City of Lost Children". This is the cd you blast when all your friends are over, and just to have a good time. You can't not like this disc, its just so awesome and really captures the flair and excitement of what punk rock should be. It dosen't slow down for anything, and its just an adrenaline rush from begining to end.

If I had to classify their sound, i'd say they sound like a mix of Green Day and Bad Religion. They just work and play so well, it sounds clean, crisp and smooth. I'd LOVE to see these guys live, but I don't know if they will ever play anywhere near my town. They are just so good, I swear, I've never heard stuff this good in a really long time. They combine all the good elements of a punk band and just make great music.

You'd be dumb not to check this disc out. Even if you've never heard them play, just pick it up. You will not be disappointed, this cd is great, and I really want to hear another from these guys.

this cd is so good. i heard of them from their 30 second song on short music for short people, and i thought it wouldn't be that good, but i LOVED this CD! it's absolutely awesome, songs like "Automatons" "Youth Anthems" and so many more on this CD have such a stong political message, with their mix of hardcore/pop make the CD very good and enjoyable to listen to.

to many of you this is a new great band that truly defines grace under pressure, i had completely lost hope in punk rock until the release of Where no one knows my name- Hands down their best material - I feel sorry for anyone who can not appreciate this record. Hats off to band who doesn't need to write songs about lost love or retort to a poppy-punk riff or Ska Riff to ease the ears of the critics. Well worth the wait as well as the money. what i got, 'Truth and Beauty' two things that often clash in the realm of rock music. I can't say that I have watched the members music careers as closely as most - but let's just say Enemy You is the Echinacea of todays ill-willed Punk era. Do your record collection a favor and buy this record.

Reminds me of Bad Religion with less interesting tunes, and lyrics that are simultaneously easier to understand and more pretentious. The tune on "Short Music for Short People"-- all 20 seconds of it-- was much better than this entire album.

I was just browsing around the net looking at punk sites, and I stumbled upon these guys. With little more than 1 comparison to Bigwig, I knew I had to check out this band. 2 downloaded songs later, and I was on my way to buying this CD. I don't normally get pulled in that quickly, so I was amazed with this one. It's fast, hardcore - yet catchy - punk that I think is pretty universally enjoyable.

no doubt like many of you, i had high hopes for this album after hearing the four on the floor and short music for short people tracks by enemy you. i even didn't mind waiting three weeks or so for the delayed release. what i got, however, was repetitive-even-for-punk melodies, a total absence of energy, and lyrics so pretentious they were better suited for hippie poetry readings. after school special (the band's precursor) was fun poppy-punk, and ok, if dave wanted to get serious, more power to him. but there's gotta be some variety, both of style and subject. where are the songs about chicks? is kelly burkett no longer a psycho?
