not the best weasel record, but not the worst. i'm sad that the reviewer failed to mention "dummy up".

i'm so in love with you http://www.los-angeles-casino.com/lanir/casino-directory-2005.htm l

No one mentioned "crying in my beer"(wiggle)
"stab stab stab", "achtung",

1. don't turn off the lights (my brain hurts)
2. Soap Opera (kill the musicians)
3. Tightrope (thank you very little)
4. Political song for screeching weasel to sing (s/t re-release)
5. hey suburbia (s/t re-release, boogadax3, kill the musicians)

This was just recently reviewed. Cool. When I first listened to Sw I was in 7th grade and my buddy bought "Bark Like A Dog" cause we knew they were a punk band. We knew shit. He hated it (or maybe just didn't like it that much), but I fell in love.

Honestly, the production on this album steals it. "My Brain Hurts" and "Anthem for a New Tomorrow"are right there, but there is just something about this album thats almost, well, magical. Whenever I here 'Count to Three' lead into "Speed of Mutation' I get shivers. Every drum beat, ever chord, every snooty croon from Ben, man it all sounds soooo perfect. I have even referred to this as the best PRODUCTION I have ever heard on an album. And I'm not even a rabid SW fan.

My barin hurts is their best album BY FAR.
sickboi, you've dissapointed me.

-punky

I saw the Methadones in september, and got 'Career Objectives' a few weeks ago. Even after a few months lay off, i still recognized about half the songs.

www.methadones.com

Dan Vapid sings and plays guitar in the Methadones. THey are really good. Although they don't sound like screeching weasel, they are definitely worth checking out if you like sw, because you will probably like them. THeir two albums are really differenct from each, so just check them out

Great album, kind of has a "Major Label Debut" feel (which was only recorded a few months before TCD). I've always liked SW at their fastest and most clever, and this album has alot of thoes types of songs.

Mmm...good point - Wiggle...liking it.
-Janelle

their best album is Wiggle, and then Bogada.... in a close second. Kill the Musicians is still a classic.

Is there anyone here who's favourite SW record is Bark Like A Dog?
Just curious.
I don't think it's a bad album--I wasn't even bothered by the fact that 9o% of it is drum-driven pop. But everytime I pop it in, I end up cracking back open the CD player and throwing in Teen Punks or Emo instead.
-MATEO D'CAY

my 'best of SW' vote is for "my brain hurts"

IS on the brat, sorry...anyway i guess you didn't misquote me, but rather mis-inferred what my meaning was or something.
-J

"Now I recognize and respect that your opinion says BOOGADAx3 should be SW's most-mentioned record, but to say that it was their best is to say anything they did after was crap."

Um, i don't believe i said anything they did after was crap - did i??
Anyway, the other post I put something like SW=Love...All their records are wonderful - I even love their BEAT ON THE BRAT LP. Awesome. I just like Boogada because it's pretty hardcore. But again, so i'm not unclear - i love the Ramones-influenced pop-punk too. Riverdales=Love too.
-Janelle
Please don't misquote me in the future. Cheers!

16, really? i never knew that.

"what the hell is with the lyrics to Nicaragua?"

Sure the lyrics may reek of apathy and shit, but you're talking about a song on a CD that's only one track away from another one called "I Wanna Be Naked". Or howwa 'bout the classic "Mad At The Paper Boy", or "I Love To Hate", and better yet "Used Cars"?
Point is, don't take to heart everything you hear in a stupid punk song. I seriously doubt Ben Weasel stands by these lyrics today, and wouldn't care if Nicaragua was blown to bits tonight. It's just a song about being fed up with hearing about Nicaragua. Keep in mind, Ben Weasel was about 16 when he wrote most of these lyrics. Nothing to worry about here. File this one next to DESCENDENTS' "I Wanna Be A Bear". Gotta love those stupid punk tunes.
-MATEO D'CAY

what the hell is with the lyrics to Nicaragua? from what i remember, there was crap like "i dont give a fuck about nicaragua" and "i dont give a shit" about this and that...those lyrics have always pissed me off... "suburban white kids trying to show theyve got compassion", i mean, thats funny, but if you think about the attack in any depth its fucking stupid.

"if you're gonna shoot up, don't use dirty needles". this is a great album.

Ramo

Does anybody know exactly what the cover art for this disc is?

Barkley?

Teen Punks in Heat as your fav album eh? Thats an interesting choice.

"I can make the sun come out at will
I can make the rain stop" Ben Weasel

Barkley

"...noticed the lack of praise for BOOGADABOOGADABOOGADA!
Why?"
-Janelle

JANELLE,
It's because BOOGADAx3 isn't Screeching Weasel.
Sure, the tunes were written by Ben Weasel. And yes, it's a good record. But to say it was their best--come on, now. Screeching Weasel wrote Ramones-inspired tunes, and they were better off doing just that. Even before reforming after their first break-up, Ben told SW that:
(paraphrased)"The only way we get back together is if we all promise to stick to the RAMONES-inspired tunes."
Boogada wasn't Ramones-inspired.
Now I recognize and respect that your opinion says BOOGADAx3 should be SW's most-mentioned record, but to say that it was their best is to say anything they did after was crap. Why? Because BOOGADAx3 would have been easily passed off with another band's name on the cover.
-MATEO D'CAY
PS-
"Teen Punks In Heat" was their best.

i didn't read all the comments, but noticed the lack of praise for BOOGADABOOGADABOOGADA!

Why?
-Janelle
"I wanna be naked", "psychiatrist", "hunter", fuckin "DINGBAT"! People, let's get with it!

ah...screeching weasel, my love...
-Janelle

any band that has a song with my name is ok in my book (born against - fuckin most awesome song, queers, bratmobile) but SW are god-like.

I like the cover art a lot. Vindictives' Many Moods is a better album in the rehashed-ramones style of punk, though.

the "anonymous dude who disappeared, named Zak" was also the singer/guitarist of the bands Zoinks!, who were very very awesome

This album is decent, but I would have to rate "Wiggle" as my favorite and "My Brain Hurts" a close #2. I like both bands, but Blink owes these guys everything. Also, the "Boogada" album cover T-shirt is probably one of the best I ever owned. It was plain, but that weasel face with the leather jacket fucking ruled.

This album wasn't great, but still pretty nice. I need more.

"Anthem for a New Tomorrow" is one of the best punk albums ever. And if you think it's only for kids, then maybe your tastes aren't that mature anyways!

i think its illegal to listen to this cd after you turn 20. funny for an old school laugh, like the queers or pennywise

S.W. is the best Street/Raw Pop-Punk band ever!

"it's the best album they've done since 1993's "Our Bodies Ourselves," and that's saying a lot." - Ben Weasel on the new MTV (via Weasel Manor)

kill the musicians and my brain hurts are essential, this album isn't but it's still better than your favorite album.

ughhh, definately the most overrated punk band of all time

score's for the intelectual content of mtx's lyrics.

fags!

I love the new MTX!

the dude that hasn't been seen or heard from since actually put out an album on Honest Don's under the band name "Big in Japan" his name is Zach if I recall correctly.

Barkley

HOLY FUCKING SHIT AS IF YOU REVIEWED THIS RECORD. Their best produced album and it is in my opinion only behind "My Brain Hurts" in overall greatness

Barkley

Best Screeching Weasel album ever.

I really think this is also one of the best produced albums, ever. Everything is so fucking clean, yet not over-produced. One of my top 10 albums ever.

-sickboi

Speaking of Screeching Weasel, i wonder what Ben Weasel thinks of the new MTX album. Speaking of the new MTX album, wheres that review!?!
