REVIEWS:
Fucking mind-blowing. What
we have here is one of the best discs to grace my CD player
in a good long time. Warm, soaring guitars and gentle
beginnings explode into a rage of screamed vocals and
churning melodies. A great sense of dynamics mean that
the songs surge back and forth in the soft/loud way that
so many bands attempt but so few master. The singer has
a great screaming voice but also sings the quieter sections
beautifully. This would fit really well on Dischord as
it is intelligent, thoughtful punk - you won't find the
same three chords used over and over again here. If you
appreciate emotional, subtle, yet powerful punk rock,
you have to snap this one up. Truly stunning.

"Fuck Yeah! Now this is what
I'm talking about when I use the "emo catch-phrase" in
an affirmative manner. Noisy, intricate stuff with impassioned
singing and solidly, heartfelt, honest lyrics. the sound
is sort of a blend of "Bivouac"-era Jawbreaker and "In
on the Killtaker"-vintage Fugazi, but these guys definitely
have their own think going on. A great record tp put on
after a really harsh, bitter breakup." *also on Dave Johnson's
Top Ten List.
