    This new record is a non-stop punk rock adventure, and the exceptional talent of the band is complimented once again by Mass Giorgini's tremendous production talents. Included are some great songs, all full of the band's stand-out characteristics: the fast, tight (albeit slightly monotonous) drums and blazing, Ramones-influenced guitar and vocals. I especially liked the song, "1985," which contains actual samples from Back to the Future. Also notable is "Jeannie Hates the Ramones," as anyone's disdain for that band would certainly spark concern in the songwriting minds of the Huntingtons. "Avi is a Vampire" is a cool song, which ends with a nifty rock & roll instrumental part, which will make you want to hit "play" again.
