Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Worth every penny, and possibly several pennies more.......2006-04-02

OK, I got this the other day and I have to say it's amazing. I have no idea what any of it is about, but who cares? I don't know what half of the English-language music I hear is about, either. In any case, this band knew how to rock and/or roll. This is excellent punk with great melodies, powerful playing and crazy-screamy vocals. This band deserves to be as big in the U.S. as they were in Japan. They could go toe to toe with any American or UK punk band, and I say that as a huge fan of the Ramones, the Clash, Wire and all the classics.
