"One hell of an album!"
Another crappy band on A-F Records - what a surprise.
Sloppy, shitty, 80's style punk. No thanks.
A compilation of all unsigned bands. This should have been called The Good, The Bad, The Ugly - because it's quite the mix.
If you like Bigwig or A Wilhelm Scream, this is right up your alley!
Another awesome band from New Jersey. There must be something in the water...
Until “Further Notice,” stay as far away from this band as possible!
Blah.
This record really leaves me feeling vacant.
Better than their last effort, but that's not saying much.
If you love Good Riddance, you'll love this just as much as I do!
Japanese punk rock Devo mayhem.
Japanese Nofx style punk - but nothing too exciting.
If you have ADD - don't buy this. 75 minutes of Fat Wreck style punk rock by 5 bands with 24 songs.
They should consider starting over again...
I know it's not even July yet, but this is one of the best CDs of the year.
Honest songs that are fun to sing along to! Fans of pop punk or even folk music will like this.
Four good melodic skate-punk bands from all over the globe!
If you like punk rock and pro wrestling, these guys are for you!
Pretty good CD for fans of Jimmy Eat World.
Hatebreed-eque...but who isn't these days?
If you are a fan of Unearth, these kids will rock your world!
Save your time and money.
Buy this, it's cheap!
NOFX at their worst is better than most at their best (does that make sense?)
A nice mix of Thursday, Coheed and Cambria and AFI. Good stuff...
I used to thing Staring Back sucked, but this CD quickly changed my mind.
When they say "Rock Kills Kid"...are they referring to crack? Because I think these guys are smoking lots of it.
I sure hope there isn't a Vol. 2
The 2 best things from Canada since Bob and Doug McKenzie!
Man, I'm disappointed.
Can you say, "Oh, hell yes!"
They've been doing this "punk rock" thing for a long time now, a whole lotta years, ya know.
kind of goofy
upbeat and relaxing
Sounds very Minor Threat
Rock on Brother
Wow, haven’t heard from these dudes in a long time
This record is great, it’s fast, heartfelt, and hits you hard
Well, might as well review it anyways…
What the fuck?
Something tells me I would love this band live.
Don't get near this.
I don't like this.
I love their Kiss cover!
Does anyone know what an Acrophobe is?
Damn, why is this shit so short?
What is sparta?!?
Cool.
They’re decent melodic punk rock...
I’ve actually grown quite fond of this ep.
I dig this cd, and it’s good all the way through.
I wouldn't be able to put up with this for very long.
Buy their CD and see them when they come through your town!
This just isn't catchy.
"At Any Rate," don't buy this CD!
Half OK, half bad...don't buy this.
Another one to add to the collection.
A prime example of how I like my punk rock.
Without the wimpy vocals, you've got one hell of a band!
I wish I lived in Philadelphia!
These guys definitely see the glass as half-empty.
Cheezy!
Read and find out, you lazy jerk.
meh...
Call me a sucker when you can hear the bass guitar.
Look for me in their upcoming video.
I don't really care for this CD.
Get me outta here.
Very good CD, but not as good as Lagwagon.
The next "big thing."
The music is too fast for the slow, boring singer.
This is actually music!
Not as good as the legendary "Flush Sampler."
Better than most.
Don't waste your time.
The guitar player is one sexy bitch!
Don't pass this up.
Don't pay money for this.
Fans of Lagwagon shouldn't be disappointed.
I wish there were more songs.
Techno-emo?
Each song has a pretty uplifting message that makes you want to be a better person.
Note to self: go buy this album.
I would have been just as happy with the band sounding like they did on their first album.
If I wanted all these covers on one CD I would have burned one that way by now.
it's never stuck in my mind enough for me to start liking it.
I should never say this, but I wish they had made a radio friendly track.
Me like.
This will get you laid.
Dissapointment.
Every song is worse than the one before it.
No pussy emo-core here - this is the REAL DEAL baby!
One really shitty band and one really OK band.
Familiar but original at the same time - good stuff!
This band is truly an extraordinary creation.
The first few tracks are undeniably catchy pop-punk gems...
Awesome melodic hardcore that might get overlooked due to bad production.
Attention Blue Sky Goodbye: STOP PLAYING MUSIC!
This makes me embarassed to be from Seattle.
Fast, brutally tough metal-core from New Jersey.
Quite possibly the most unoriginal band in the world.
The “repercussions” of listening to this CD include (but are not limited to): boredom, brain damage, nausea, headaches, ulcers, hair loss, spontaneous combustion and Streptocci. Listen at your own risk!
Wow, another At The Drive-In clone...how original. Next?
They play the some of the quickest, wittiest punk rock around...
Four really good hardcore bands from Philadelphia contribute for this awesome split.
This record is my pick for best of 2002.
The Four Squares kick out some simple, tough punk tunes.
Something Corporate should rename this album “Proof that any dumbshit who can sing a chorus fifty times can make a living in a band.”
Ah yes, pop punk’s favorite sons are back at it again.
Homegrown is back and with some rockin’ new tunes.
Finally, a soundtrack for a generation that wishes to whine forever about girls...
The talent is evident here
...this record really caught my ear.
If there is one band that truly never stops getting better, it is definitely Big Wig.
H20’s major label debut puts forth some of the catchiest melodies I’ve heard in a long time...
Hatebreed has crafted a masterpiece of hardcore fury.
It is dynamic, emotional, and all around amazing.
I totally dig the super catchy, super fast, highly melodic punk sound of Rufio.
Frankly, they can have Sunday, as long as I don’t have to listen to them the rest of the week.
I have very mixed feelings about this record.
"Wow." That’s what I have to say about this record.
With a solid blend of creative rythms and time patterns, you might just get lost in a Fairweather record.
Can you say “Yawn?”
This is truly a dynamic, and diverse record.
"Either you love 'em, or you hate 'em. I love 'em!"
These pussy pop punk kids try to look tough by throwing in Coalesce style vocals every now and then...it sucks.
Although "Endless" is only 15 minutes, it's an awesome, heavy-hitting, EP that is sure to get you pumped up!
Oh sure, take the easy way out and promote your label with a bunch of previously released Good Riddance. Lame.
"Another good sampler from Fearless Records that gives a sneak peek of all their newer bands. Wait...no 30footFall? What a rip off!"
"Somewhat of a guilty pleasure, but rockin' nonetheless."
"A really solid album from Lobster Records' newest band."
"Bigwig keep getting better and better!"
"The album title says it all!"
"Easily forgettable."
"If my dad spent thousands of dollars on a van and really nice equiptment for me, I'd try a little harder to write decent songs. This CD should be called "The Customers We Don't Have.""
"Check this out if you have trouble sleeping at night."
"Intense, brutal hardcore coming straight from Seattle! Great EP to tide you over until their upcoming full length."
"This album should have been called "Boring Bantams"."
"New Found Glory's kid brothers show great maturity and progression on this album! Good stuff."
