This punkband from Kansas City opens the album with Alone that goes at a frenzied pace. The bassist plays his own role now and then instead of just obediently following the chord structures. Imagine Shorthanded but played a little faster and nastier. The music is not only fast but also melodic. Their singer is singing with a sandpaper throat. My favorite song is perhaps Walking Away. The last track contains a discussion sample about Agent Orange (a chemical weapon used in the Vietnam war), a couple of other samples and a different kind of song from the band played live in the studio. The production is good. Sometimes I hear ideas that sound familiar to me and I'm sure they've picked up some of them from other artists. Great band nevertheless. Available through The Underdog Conspiracy.
