Lucas (September 8, 2006)

Kinda bland but kinda catchy at the same time.

dev (September 8, 2006)

Boooooooring... I didn't like it when it was under the "Interpol" moniker, and I don't like it now...

Someone (September 8, 2006)

With wit like that, you could get a job at Buddyhead!

Someone (September 8, 2006)

I don't think it's bad. It's a nice chiiilll record. Background music, or whatever.

Dante3000 (rich) (September 8, 2006)

Hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on
HOLD ON!
Does the first song say
"We kill almost anyone to be,
It's up to you and me, G-O-D"?
What?
And why is reverse and fastforward disabled? Fuck you myspace.
-Dante
P.S. Oh right, it's very Depeche Mode-eque.

Someone (September 8, 2006)

it does say that, and fuckin myspace's full album streams always disable that shit, lame.

Someone (September 8, 2006)

The band was originally called G.O.D.

David_Arquette (September 8, 2006)

This is post-punk?

Someone (September 8, 2006)

yup

coffinfullofnails (September 8, 2006)

syr667 (September 9, 2006)

88-fingers-tony (September 8, 2006)

all your base are belong to us.

and also, this band sucks.

Someone (September 8, 2006)

yes, yes they do.

someone set up us the bomb.

GlassPipeMurder (September 8, 2006)

i already got this on disc. patent pending, counting, and another night are about the only ones i listen to.

Someone (September 8, 2006)

why skiba ever teamed up with these spoiled brats from LA is beyond me. dude should be making music with chi-town peeps!!!

GlassPipeMurder (September 8, 2006)

it's only one guy...and he's from the east coast.

lolz

Mute98 (September 8, 2006)

yup hes an east coast native, and i say skiba goes back to chicago, he has no talent

coffinfullofnails (September 8, 2006)

it's because he lives in berkley and LA is closer than chi-town....but i think it would've been better had he worked with someone from out there.

Someone (September 8, 2006)

Chi-town? Fucking retards.

Someone (September 9, 2006)

Okay, firstly: Matt lives in LA, second, he has plenty of talent, and segueing nicely into thirdly, the other guy, regardless of where he's from, is a dumb douche. If there's a lack of talent in this band (and believe me, there is) look no further than the dumb spoiled douche (possibly from the east coast) who isn't directly responsible for one of the biggest punk rock bands of the last ten years.

Someone (September 9, 2006)

Okay, firstlly....Matt doesn't live in LA, he lives in San Francisco. There is no secondly

Someone (September 9, 2006)

Matt lives in LA, with his wife. He hasn't lived in SF in a while.
Joe is from Boston, and moved out to LA to play in F Minus. I'm really not sure how he's a "spoiled douche" since he's a pretty nice guy. He's also a really talented musician.

jacknife737 (September 8, 2006)

The album sounds great, however i'm dead against reviving 80s music, and this has more then a tint of 80s influence.

Someone (September 9, 2006)

I thought this sounded pretty good. But I did have to stop at the 5th or 6th song.

Someone (September 9, 2006)

Heavens > Propagandhi

daved4 (September 9, 2006)

HAHAHAHAHA
your kidding right?

dev (September 9, 2006)

flamebait

ChokingVictim (September 9, 2006)

I like this album, though I have only listened to it once and never bothered to listen again.

braileatsshit (September 9, 2006)

alumnus? they left f-minus?

Someone (September 9, 2006)

F Minus broke up several years ago

ABedForLiars (brittany) (September 10, 2006)

It got a 5 in AP and I love Matt Skiba. So, I just might get it.

Someone (September 13, 2006)

what gives? yall are criticizing the music based on image. shit like where the guy lives right now, wether the guys are nice? and what decade it has 'tints' from. i dont get that. its just skiba playin the same type of music he always has. yall loved it then aint no reason you shouldn't now... but then again this is the age of fallout boys
