My Score:

wow wow wow! This cd honestly represents what the ska music is all about and that's just having a fun time. The hip-hop style of lyrics actually really works for these guys and it's there live energy and brilliance that seperates these guys from all the other pretenders. Thanks for the breath of fresh air Johnstones!

I've never enjoyed a concert/show more than the Johnstones shows I've been to ... the energy is amazing. They're so good.

As for the rumour. I haven't talked to anyone from the band much, so I'm not saying I know them personally. But they're nice guys. It's just solid bullshit to say any of them would do something like that.

So whoever started it.. go play in traffic.

All I have to say is get real. If they raped the girl, and even if she told the trusth, she would make a claim. Not post it over the fucking interent. Second, most are in their teens, how are they supposed to be in possesion of drugs.
To anyone single shithead who believed this, get the word 'fucktard' written on your forehead. I mean common sense, what did you like skip school all your life?
Also to those who don't like them, you don't like them case closed! you don't have to let the world know.

Jesuede.

and anyone who actually takes the johnstones lyrics seriously is stupider than helen keller

your a retard, i bet ryan and jarek did fuck your girlfriend, and i bet she loved it.

if youve ever met either ryan or jarek you would know that they constantly have girls hanging off of them and would never need to drug anybody to have sex with them.

as for mounds of coke? thats ridiculous as well, ryan and jarek dont even smoke weed

so quit making up stories just because you walked out of the dungeon and your girl was getting pork roasted. somebody should castrate you

I have been to numerous shows,Just to see the Johnstones! They give an Awsome Live show! I think whoever wrote that they were cokehead? rapers? Is a complete Idiot and don't know them or what they are about. Try going to a show, talk to them and then tell me if they are shit or fucked up on blow!
Hey whoever started the rumor are a bunch of (B.A.B.I.E.S)
you need some titties, some titties, You ASS!

Keep Rockin Johnstones!!!! GRWilde

i fuckin love the johnstones they came to my school last friday and i just have to say im in love with all of them so if any one disagrees with me they have serious issues and need to get them sorted out!

this is a bunch of bullshit.

the johnstones are amazing guys and they wouldnt fucking drug and rape a girl.

and they dont do mounds of coke.

whats wrong with you people.

get the facts straight before you try and spread useless shit.

your just jealous of their accomplishments.

so get a life.

haha, everyone in our band is gonna end up posting on this. i had to, its just soooo funny. you guys are fucking retarded whoever posted this. suck my nuts. yea, i raped a girl, good one. thats gonna fly.... better yet, if you know we raped your wannabe girl, go tell the police you idiot. then we'll do dna tests, which will probably be skewed do to the INSANE mounds of coke ive been doing, and ill get off scot free to go rape another girl, probably your next girlfriend

Retard

You guys can all munch on my piss flaps. These guys didn't drug and rape anyone. I know them, shit I've known Julian for 7 years now. Plus, the show was in fucking Oshawa- you don't have to drug anyone in that town, they do it themselves, and it was probably some pansyass little 14 year old bitch wanting attention. Don't spread shit about the band members, fuckers. Focus on the music.

My Score:

great guys and a solid ska album, mcmaster represent!

This is Brent from the band.

Wow those accusations are completly absurd, apparently the second your album hits a store you become not only a junkie but a sex offender. That's gonna be a tough one to break to my mom.

And just as an aside to the album review, which seems to have been lost amongst the multitudes of libellous comments, is the comment on the underlying beat to the "hidden" song, that beat containing "fart" bass is Herbie Hancock's " Chameleon". Which is a pretty famous jazz tune, if you're not feeling it thats cool, just thought it should be said.

And honestly anyone who believe any of that slanderous bullshit is an idiot. First of all no body is raping people, its a disgusting thing to do and nobody is raping anybody. Honestly do you really think if it was true that you can just rape someone and get away with it, I've seen enough CSI to know that its not very easy to you know just get away with shit. No police investigator would tell some stupid punk kid details about a case, thats illegal and no one is that stupid. Grow a fucking brain already.

As far as doing mounds of coke, I'm a student, I barely have enough money to eat and get drunk let alone be doing mountains of an incredibly expensive drug. Again grow a brain before you make stupid comments on the internet.
PS. Whoever said I was a nice guy, you're cool keep it real.

i had some close friends at the show in oshawa and it was actualy Timcognito that was looking to take advantage. It doenst surpirse me knowing tim through some mutual frineds. in fact , form what ive heard tim is known for these types of activites. A friends mom who is a community leader and block parent and said his late night acitivtes have been brought to her attention before, he was never formally confronted but its pretty clear around here that you dont walk alone if hes at a party.

Ryan from the johnstones her
ummm so ya i just read this and ya first off im not suprised most of you dont like the album becuase generally serious punks do not--- im not a punk and dont attempt to appeal to them

second raping and coke?

soooo, me and jarek generally have girl friends and they generally are from our universities and are over 20... and we didnt rape anyone nor were any of us involved in any investigation and have never been in my life. basically this just isnt true. ive heard a ton of outragrous rumours about us but i think this is by far the most rediculuos, and is 100% false. i dont know who started it but it is a lie

second as to the mounds of coke i do-- ive maybe done any hard drugs maximum 5 times in my life and dont do drugs in general.

sooo ya.... its nice how rumours can start but this one needs to stop because its abserd

get out of life.
fake post.

also, who ACTUALLY cares if they raped some chick? really. anyone?

Are you for real? get the fuck out of punk rock

despite the meaningless and immature lyrical content, this album is excellent. ska isn't really about the lyrics, anyways. it's more about playing good, fun music, which is exactly what this band does, so quit hating.

also, who ACTUALLY cares if they raped some chick? really. anyone?

well now that is a different argument really. I would praise Fucked Up too I happen to love triumph of life BUT it is far more effective in the context of Hdden World rather than a 7" single. It did work as a teaser for the album but as for compartmentalizing the ideas within the album Dangerous Fumes did it more effectively thats why that got a higher score. an argument could easily be made that the aim for this record was to be a fun record and it accomplished its goals for what it is nothing more nothing less. If the aim was an effective socio-political commentary it failed but that isn't what the records aims were. I'm not under the belief music has to be about that all the time, you maybe be under that belief and if you are than by all means give this a half mark. But under the idea of this band accomplishing their goals 7 out of 10 is how effectively I rate that. I'm glad you like Fucked Up though, they are one fo my favourite bands currently active.

My Score:

Oooh. I appear to have struck a nerve. Listen, all I'm saying is that this band is garbage, and Fucked Up isn't. Regardless of genre, bands like this do not need to exist and bands like Fucked Up should. You as a reviewer on a popular music website should be attacking mediocrity and praising integrity. Of which this band has none of the latter, but is full of the former. Unless you just don't care about shitty, boring, generic music getting pumped out all the fucking time.

"THIS IS FOR ALL THE LADIES! ONE TWO FUCK YOU! TITTIES! ASS!"

they're not. one is vapid, pointless and sexist. the other is, well, triumph of fucking life. if you don't get it, it doesn't matter. carry on.

-mybulldogfront

"get it"? obviously you seem to have problems following a logical process. The two releases are of different genres, by different artists and different formats therefore there is nothing about them that can be judged against the other. There is no line of reasoning that could lead one to believe that the score of one impacts the other. So my giving one a higher or lower score should really have nothing to do with other right? right. You sir are wrong, better luck next time though. When you attempt to be condescending you could try and you know actually have a point. carry on.

they're not. one is vapid, pointless and sexist. the other is, well, triumph of fucking life. if you don't get it, it doesn't matter. carry on.

-mybulldogfront

keep it up

how are the two related in any way shape or form?

"this is for all the ladies" gets a 7.

triumph of life 7" gets a 6.

riiiiiigght.
keep it up!

-mybulldogfront

from the sound of it if I had listened to this album after all this talk of rape and douche baggyness I would have had the emotional impulse to score it lower but as it stands not knowing the band members and their stories this is a really fun record.

My Score:

pure crap.

a member of this band is in their 20's? i assumed it was all 16-17 year olds due to the level of childish content in their material.

now it all makes sense the drummer is a cokehead rapist! there was this fifteen year old kid barfing in a toilet and the drummer was just laughimg at him while saying things only understod by vulcans at a show i was at it was funny but still weird. also he hits on a lot of 14 year olds thats weak for someone in their 20's hell thats weak for a 17 year old

i'm pretty sure it was the drummer and the guitarist that drugged her.
i was helping out at a show in oshawa, and it happened.

i could have hurt them.

yeah, the suck even after the mountains of coke they do.

if punk rock has taught me anything in life, is that coke is not cool.

the drummer from this band, that guys from The Blackout Pact and that armed robbery dude should form a band.

My Score:

Their drummer was actually a prime suspect in a rape case that took place a few years ago. The father of someone I know was in charge of the investigation. He was never formally arrested, although it was pretty clear that he was responsible. Anyway, this band sucks, rape or no rape.

-Chinatown

You ever hear about a band, and think to yourself, "Hey, these guys don't need to exist..." Well, that's the feeling I got from this review. Maybe they don't suck as badly as it sounds like they do. Also, what's up with the drugging girlfriends thing. I fail to see the appeal of a passed-out girl...eww

yeah it's me.

johnstones are lame.
can rot in hell for all i care.

so can my now, ex-girlfriend haha

these are some pretty serious accusations. The worst part is knowing the band, I believe it.

to the dude who said the thing about them drugging a girl he knew, is that you tim?

they tried to drug my friend tim's girlfriend at the time.

lost all respect for the johnstones as soon as they drugged a girl i knew in an attempt to get with her.

shitty tunes
