    This is a principle review. File these guys in the career nihilist category. Any band that has to stoop to using a moniker as loathsome as these guys did should not be allowed near a recording studio. But I'm sure they don't care based on their band name.

    The Champs' music is so exhilaratingly, grin-inducingly, fist-shakingly wonderful you cannot help but want more. VI delivers in spades.

    This record is the first time the Fucking Champs have actually managed to capture the actual emotional colors of their own banality, rather than trying to piss a whole two-minute solo all over the place.
