Just came out today, already picked it up. Some great rock n roll, and many different styles abound on this release. Aberdeen, Sell Yourself, and Shake me Down will be the big ones off of this one I think.

Ps, If you haven't gotten to see these guys live, go see em! They kick some serious ass and put on such a great show.

I saw them perform 2 songs quite by accident at Bayfest in Mobile Alabama a year or two ago. I was passing the stage they were performing on in route to another stage. I've heard Skillsaws cutting plywood that sounded more musical. I was wondering if they were in tune, but how do you tell if a skillsaw cutting plywood is in tune? It was certainly in my top 10 of the most annoying and anti-musical performances I have ever seen. I will say they certainly thrashed about the stage and put on an exhibition. Call me opinionated (I am) but thrashing without music is just thrashing.

Glad you enjoy them though. To each his own.

Which is quite a shame cause when I saw them they were very very good. I've heard polarizing comments about em all the time though. I dunno, the show I saw was nothing short of amazing. Maybe it was a good night for them. Their albums are really good sounding though. Like punk rock with a funky groove that isn't ska.
