I had a hard time with this album. I listened to this thing many times thinking I was missing out on something. Turns out, this isnt my kinda stuff. It has its moments(Traineater, Pray), however I just get so damn bored for the majority of the time. This isnt lush stuff we have here, its abrasive as hell(making it harder to sink my teeth into). And the lyrics don't really do anything for me at all. The music in general is just a bit too bland for me and it doesn't have the peaks and valleys that I desire.

Sorry I'm terrible at reviews
3/10
Wow, I guess it really is true. To each is own, nice and honest review though- that's always respectable.

OK I'll post the partners tomorrow. I will be gone all of next week so I will need somebody to fill in for me, or just not post partners till I get back on Sunday August 23rd.

anyways trace87 made the mistake of sending me my least favourite punk band next to The Exploited, The Adolescents. Now I can't blame him for this mistake, I hardly ever talk about my punk bands (partly because I have great disdain for the genre) but also The Adolescents are one of those greatly respected artists from most fans of the genre. The album he sent me was their self-titled album, which I'll admit is better than the rest of their discography (especially Balboa Fun Zone). I think my irrational hatred of most punk is mostly due to the fact that even they wouldn't accept me as a teenager because I wouldn't dress or act like them. I clung to my geeky roots of reading Tolkein and Pratchett as well as playing Dungeons & Dragons. This rejection by a group of self appointed rejects really made me dislike the punk genre and most things associated with it. I know this sounds petty, but I can be a very petty person at times. Sorry man, I hope you liked The Standard more than I liked The Adolescents.
