i've been waiting for this new full length since i caught them live last year. i would have to say it was worth the wait. upon first listen i was unimpressed, but i was then sucked in and after repeated listenings i am addicted and satisfied. not your typical "dance punk" or "electroclash" or whatever you want to call it, more like a mix of late '70's no wave, house music and early '90's industrial. pardon my freedom, hello? is this thing on? and shit scheisse merde stack up pretty well next to the flawless me and guiliani...… Expand

a couple of flat tracks, but its been on constant replay for me, so that spoke for itself. excellent music, asinine lyrics that can be either ignored or gleefully sung along to. makes you dance even when its not on. a majority of those dissing on it are just bringing up issues about what they expected after the guliani ep....

uplifting and funky and definitely cool, 'Hello? Is This Thing On?' is so well put together, the Bass weaving through the riffs. love it.

if this is even possible, they're even better live.

!!! delivered "Louden Up Now", and it is certainly a great listen. The bass lines flow like milk and the vocals are softened, overpowered by the funk-punk that surrounds it. "Shit Sheisse Merde Pts. 1 & 2" and "Me and Guiliani..." serve great dance operations. Impress yourself with your listen of !!!.

The cd is great although at times slightly repetitive. It's among my favorites. The cd has really grown on me.

The funkiest thing since hair wax.

wicked fun.

definately on my top ten albums this year. There are no bad songs. Glad I came across it. Good band to see in concert too.
