thebiglebowski (September 7, 2007)

Best Song on this CD?

I say "Fuck the World"

ChokingVictim (September 7, 2007)

that's their best song i think

Boredom (September 7, 2007)

same. i'm on the fence about the unlovables, so i'm looking forward to hearing the cover.

HumanUnkind (September 8, 2007)

You're Tripping is pretty awesome too, but you're probably right.

ChokingVictim (September 7, 2007)

good bands covering the queers = win

freesandwich (September 7, 2007)

So this isn't about fall out boy?

2Kings (September 8, 2007)

sorry, don't think so dude.

Marizo (September 8, 2007)

Then whats the point of it all?

skankin_in_the_pit (September 7, 2007)

This looks really good. Asian Man constantly pleases me.

(Insert Asian Men pleasing me joke here)

ChokingVictim (September 7, 2007)

if anyone claims an asian man pleased them, then it is a joke

TheOneTrueBill (September 7, 2007)

Even though the New Bomb Turks and Weasel songs are already pretty easily available, this is still going to rule.

housewrecker (September 8, 2007)

The Parasites tune too. I'd like to know how much of this stuff is new material...

greg0rb (September 7, 2007)

Screeching Weasel covering the Queers? What a twist!

Jesus_H_Christ (September 7, 2007)

Hahaha, yeah that amused me to.

YasserBossin (September 7, 2007)

they wanna be a homosexual, but cover the queers

pnfan (September 8, 2007)

Why not ? Ben Weasel did a Queers song with The Guts at Insurbordation Fest.BTW most of these bands doing this were influcened by the Queers.

DaveHidden (September 8, 2007)

This cover is from around the time S.W. did Wiggle if I remember correctly. It's old. As far as them doing a Queers song, it isn't the first time. Ben and Joe have written many songs together. Almost all of them have been performed by both bands at some point.

Streak ended

MikeStupid (September 7, 2007)

I can't wait to hear the Steinways' cover of "Debra Jean"

thebiglebowski (September 7, 2007)

I prefer couldn't get invited to the prom, but the Steinways will probably sound good for both.

RyanFL (September 7, 2007)

The best queers song ever isn't even on there...whaaat!

"See ya later fuckface see ya later fuckface see ya in the funny pages, fuck you!"

ahhh the memories...

notfeelingcreative (September 7, 2007)

I don't know about 'best queers song ever' but defintely my favorite track from their last few records.

DancinShoes (September 7, 2007)

Le Volume Etait Au Maximum - Teenage Gluesniffers

Joe Queer liked it so much that he gave them the song and whenever he plays it live he now say that it is a song from LVEAM.

great band, btw. Check them out.

AnarchyPants (September 7, 2007)

The Queers were better before they turned into Screeching Weasel jr.

Nap (September 7, 2007)

I thought the name of the tribute would be "God Save the Queers"

el_matt (September 7, 2007)

Long Live The Queers

punk_rawk_show (September 7, 2007)

Screeching Weasel still around?

housewrecker (September 8, 2007)

Short answer: No. But Ben just released another Ben Weasel album which is really good.

pinkbubblesgoape (September 7, 2007)

remember that comp joe did for lookout! called 'more bounce to the ounce?' didn't that start out as a queers tribue album too? i know the CLETUS song on this comp is from that comp. i miss CLETUS...

Jesus_H_Christ (September 7, 2007)

My asshole is stoked.

returnofdebs (September 8, 2007)

i bet your father would not approve.

Jesus_H_Christ (September 8, 2007)

the big guy upstairs is a HUGE fan of the Queers.

and of anal lovin'

mCLz (September 7, 2007)

i was hoping for the new bomb turks to cover another queers song, but its just an old cover they did..not cool

DiscoFucker (September 7, 2007)

The Queers are fucking awful.

internetsanta (September 7, 2007)

blabbermouth is unfortunately not on the track listing.
new bomb turks are unfortunately not doing anything right now
this compilation unfortunately wont sell

the queers are great

facetofacereunion08 (September 7, 2007)

should be a screeching weasel one instead. sw is 10 times better than the queers imo.

hitlerbadzakgood (September 8, 2007)

rather a tribute to joe queer.

Mario (September 8, 2007)

Did the black tie bombers break up?
I checked their myspace and it didn't look promising.

saraL (September 8, 2007)

why didn't anyone cover 'punk rock girls' or 'born to do dishes'? i'm sad.

Sneedo (January 4, 2008)

awesome to see City Mouse on this comp.
