It's raw, it's sloppy, it's gritty, it's six songs on a 45 sized 33, it's unimaginative, it's cliché, it's the same damn tempo every damn song, it's the same damn 4-5 chords reorganized, it's the off pitch vocals, it's the fact that they call themselves pop-punk on their website, it's the fact that they've broken up before their release gets reviewed.

The biggest fuckin Mumbler on the planet is Don Howes and I work with the guy. He's so goddamn squirrely and loves to drink. You still got TRIPLE ZINGED. Okay, you got me. I forgot about the other one. but in the end, playing grammer police when you have been insulted is much lamer then having a temporary lapse in intelligence. Ok, so someone alerted me of this review. I wrote these songs, played guitar and sang everything on this record. I then put it out on my label.Is it raw? Yeah.Is it sloppy? Kinda.Is it gritty? Yes.Is it only 4-5 chords rearranged? Actually it's not.Is it all the same tempo? Pretty much, with one exception.Did I sing off key? Yes.Did we break up? Yes, though I'm not sure why that matters.In defense of this Jesse character that you all seem to dislike, it is, admittedly, not the best record ever. We kinda rushed into doing it so we could have something recorded with us on our summer tour. There's some songs I like on it and some I don't, and I still think there's a lot of heart behind it (which he notes,) but I guess that doesn't count too much for the guy.For me it's not the content or the brevity of the review that were bothersome, it's the air of pretension. You're off on one thing about my poetry. I'll openly admit that I'm still a virgin. Now if you wanna talk cliche, check out Jesse's poetry. Wh4h4h4h4h4h4h4h4h4h4 J3ss3 y0u fucking idi07.

At this point I just want the members of Mumbler to read the review and the whole resulting thread and kill themselves. Look what their shit has caused. I mean really. It would hurt more if it came from someone who didn't name themselves after Operation Ivy. hahaha what a joke this is. Fucking grammer police everywear, and the fact that this review is quite possibely the worst thing iv'e ever red. Plus the fact that you got pwn3d to shit by MarkieStabone. Just stop reveiwing, please, because everyone who reads this WIIL feel dumer aftarwerds. If i changed the your into a you're instead, the sentence would basically read like this. Actually, I think that counts as a double ZING. Hey, dolt, it's the first "your" that's wrong. It should read: If i changed the your into a you're instead, the sentence would basically read like this. "Ummm, your a hipster because your reviews are always about how the bands look or carry themselves, or how played out there stylistic bearings are. Also, there have been several reviews where you go in with a clear bias straight from the beginning. Thats not music reviewing, thats public masturbation." Ummm, your a hipster because your reviews are always about how the bands look or carry themselves, or how played out there stylistic bearings are. Also, there have been several reviews where you go in with a clear bias straight from the beginning. Thats not music reviewing, thats public masturbation. Seriously. This score is for that coment by MarkieStabone. That was amazing man. Yeah, I accept that this review isn't that in depth. Sorry. It was a 7inch sent out to me by Scott, and the band was broken up even before I got it in the mail. And just because I listen to Liars and think that I'm better than you doesn't make me a hipster. It just makes me better than you. Oh shit Liars are at the top of his list 5 months into the year! This must mean something! Damn! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! !!11 Isn't Jesse the stupid hipster guy? hahahaHAHAHAhahHAhahHAHAHhaHA "it's two paragraphs in a large empty space, it's unimaginative, it's cliché, it's the same damn bullshit every damn review, it's the same damn 4-5 words reorganized, it's the boring review premise, it's the fact that the reviewer considers himself clever, it's the fact that he should take a writing class before anything gets reviewed" It's raw, it's sloppy, it's gritty, it's two paragraphs in a large empty space, it's unimaginative, it's cliché, it's the same damn bullshit every damn review, it's the same damn 4-5 words reorganized, it's the boring review premise, it's the fact that the reviewer considers himself clever, it's the fact that he should take a writing class before anything gets reviewed.
