Reviewed 2006-05-03
Mostly English styled punk a la crusty GBH or the Sex Pistols, with a decidedly metal flare sometimes sounding like a cross between Motorhead and Bad Religion. Political themes, decent stuff if the guitar doesn’t wank too much. The photo on the back looks scary but the music is actually not too bad (surprisingly cuz they look like such poseurs; including a photo like that usually says one thing: Amoeba).

1) faux radio emergency announcement to start, followed by a spoken word tale of futuristic scenario of martial law on the US, imperialism, with heavy rock soundbed, noise
2) 2/4 punk, very crusty English style
3) metal tinged intro and guitar, 2/4 punk w slight gallop, wanky chorused guitar lead
4) LA feel in music, cross between Motorhead and Bad Religion
5) metalish punk
6) FCC
7) sex pistols feel
8) silly, ironic commentary
9) metal intro to 2/4 english, good lyric chorus hook
10) great war, bush, bootcamp related samples, dark metal, a quick FCC (“bullshit”) in a sample
11) chugga chugga 2/4
12) wankfest on guitar
13) FCCs in intro
14) FCC in intro, cover of Twisted Sister classic, ends early, followed by silence then hidden “track”
