   While the term "artistry" is rarely used in conjunction with "hardcore" or "punk rock," now is such a time. This band defies classification, and perhaps these labels just don't apply to anything other than the circles they run in. The layers of sound, the depth of the composition, the intensity of this album leave nothing to be desired. While something of this vein might not appeal to me normally, the artistry of this album insist attention to be paid. I sat and I listened. It was an hour well spent.… Expand

They have a finely foccussed anger that keeps it hard-hitting from beginning to end. Its not overwhelming, though. It's actually kind of welcoming. Easily one of the year's best albums.… Expand

"Crooked Teeth" sums up the band in that one song. All In All, incredible experimental punk band. Great album. B+… Expand
