5.0 out of 5 stars Simply put: Michael Gerald rules supreme, November 3, 1999
By A Customer
Killdozer was one of the best and most underated bands of the last 15 years. All their stuff is killer. I see one reviewer doesn't get it. Their loss: not for fans of overly-produced kiddie punk. If you've ever crossed state lines on a dark winter night just for a 40oz of Schlitz Red Bull, Killdozer is the band for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Granny want some Kolon Blo, December 9, 2007
First off, Killdozers eat bulldozers for breakfast, semis for lunch and airliners at suppertime. They can take your song and stretch it out for a whole album, and make you feel so jealous and inferior, you will literally drown in your tears. A few words of warning to the ultra tender-hearted: this kind of kerfuffle is so intense, it will spin your bowels around like a potato sack of kittens dropped into a raging sea among the craggy rocks. You'll be a hell-on-wheels grandma sitting in the cab of a three-story-high monster truck, armflab a flag of rusting flesh waving in the wind as you adjust the outside mirror to better view highway patrol vehicles flipping as you dumps exacto knives onto the roadway. Bam! Fwipp! You can wake up from your nap now.

5.0 out of 5 stars solid inspiration from their hearts of gold, December 25, 2007
By Rock Criminal (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews
Sometimes, when I'm feeling low, I'll slap this on and begin to feel my frown turn upside down. "Going To The Beach" makes me think of simpler times. Thank you Killdozer, thank you Madison.
