    One of the few CD's recently that has a permanate spot in my player. It's like hyperactive Beastie Boys. They are even better live. Can't wait til the next release!

    I'm surprised how many reviews say this is a two-dimensional band that's about partying and nihilism. The lyrics are on the website, and they're best part. Some of the songs could use some work, but Film/Video and Jam Band Death Cult are amazing.

    Hey guys I'm pretty sure that this is to review the very solid record not the show that you went to and didn't enjoy because you were to busy being a pretentious jerk to have a good time.

    Totally ridiculous, fun music with mind-blowing intensity. I guess it's a Love 'Em / Hate 'Em kind of deal, but I'm definitely loving them. Awesome album.

    Ninja High School is fucking awesome. I worry though that the amazing live energy and fun spirit can't translate to record very well. Sad.

    Oh, my God! I've seen so many good reviews for this record online, so I bought it... I think it's great!

    I've seen these kids open for The Go! Team and they're, without a doubt, one of the worst acts I've ever seen. Someone please shut them up.

    Somewhat more reminiscent of Rage Against the Machine than the Beastie Boys or Eminem, the group... is as good as any rap outfit at expressing anger; in fact, they're more eloquent than most.

    If I want to hear something where a load of people are having a blast and making a racket by smashing styles together and singing silly songs, I'm gonna reach for The Go! Team. They're probably just as irreverent, but they're not nearly as annoying.

    Young Adults Against Suicide is fun but two-dimensional.
