My favorite VGS album..., January 8, 2007
I got this CD in 97 after being introduced to VGS w/ "El Balie de los Locos." "Who is this is?" is their best in my opinion. I like every song on this one. My favorite is "Bossman," hard for anyone not to relate to the message. Ths music is fast, loud, hard; the horns are especially at the forefront most of the time on this album. I'd definitely recommend this album to VGS newbie fans as a first listen, as it is so much different, and in my opinion better, than their newer releases.
After seeing them at a local punk show, this is their only album that really hits on that adrenaline.

A diamond in the rough that is ska-core... and hey, Krillin's on the cover., March 27, 2006
Going back to my high school days, I used to love this album, and somehow it crossed the nation from its California home to my Alabama one and changed the way I looked at horn sections in punk bands. I then went from one ska band to the other, this was 1996, and then it blew up that summer, with Reel Big Fish and the Bosstones getting airplay on MTV. Then every hack in hacksville loved ska, but no one ever really picked up on this band. And now, looking back over a sea of music I have listened to and the styles of music I prefer now, this particular album, along with Let's Go Bowling's Mr. Twist, are the only ska constants I keep in rotation. I also noticed later that the bald character on the cover is none other than Krillin of Dragonball Z fame with a Saiya-jin suit on. That right there was ahead of the curb as Dragonball Z didn't catch on over here for another four years.

The best VGS album EVER!!!!!, September 16, 1999
By A Customer
If you are at all questioning which VGS CD to buy, make it "Who Is This Is?"! This is VGS' peak! No other ska/punk/indie band can compare to VGS' sound on this CD. If you have any doubts just check out the sample of Insubordination. Just get it, you'll see what I'm talking about.
