5.0 out of 5 stars Best Album I've purchased in a year, September 17, 2001
By Derrek Long (Alexandria, VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This album is great!

Superb musicians and even better song writers. These songs are lighter in sound than Joey's Lagwagon, but far superior in craftsmanship (except for maybe some of the stuff off of "Feelings" and some of the newer songs of "Leftovers"). For being such a "new" band it's hard to believe how interwoven the instruments are throughout these songs.

Don't expect the snare crashing 220 beat per minute songs of Lagwagon, but if you're into punk, rock, emo, or even metal (you metal heads will like the musicianship) you'll enjoy this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars is this cd real?, September 2, 2001
By Kel Brigance (Austin, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
Bad Astronaut is a perfect rock band with a real fresh sound. Joey Cape has to have is hands full between Lagwagon, Me First and the Gimme Gimme's, running a record label, and touring; all this makes a man wonder where he gets time to not only make a record with another band, but to make a completely original rock'n'roll masterpiece. I wouldn't call Bad Astronaut punk, I'd call it a new form of progressive space rock with punk and emo influences. cool, very cool.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow..., August 5, 2001
By E. Flowers (St. George, UT USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is really some serious songwriting. The music is superb, Derrick Plourde really shines teaming up with his old LagWagon cohort Joey. But, while this is a 5 star album, it is NOT a "party/fun" ride. Most songs are very serious, and downright sad. But, its awesome songwriting, exceptional even.

And the answering machine clips are friggin hilarious.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lagwagon is much better
I don't know, guys. I've been a Lagwagon fan for a while now, and Acrophobe really lacks the energy of "Blaze" and "Let's Talk About Feelings." Just listen to "Max Says. Read more
