3 out of 5 stars its sad to hear this band is no longer around,.......2007-01-31

and their new band (under the influence of giants) has the same singer, is completely different.

i bought this cd after listening to 'UTIOG' and was dissapointed, i only paid 3 bucks, but hey. just letting you know

3 out of 5 stars it's ok.......2005-12-23

Like Weezer and Nirvana? If they mated, you'd get this sound. It's very Weezer sounding musically, and the vocals have the Cobain snarl. Overall, it's ok, but doesn't grab me...so if it's on, I won't shut if off, but I don't think this is a cd I'll make the choice of, when flipping through my discs. And opening for Hoobastank? That says something, and for me, that doesn't mean something's good...

5 out of 5 stars Great album !!.......2005-12-13

Saw them in concert several years ago in Kansas City with Hoobastank, awesome band live. Catchy melodies and I still listen to them.
KC,

3 out of 5 stars remember Insurgence?.......2005-03-20

I have a demo tape of Aaron's hardcore, Vegan loving band in high school. yet i'm 8 years older than the guy. why? i worked at his high school. we used to sit in his home econ. class and talk about music while my autisic student would yell at people for not like the Power Rangers. aaahhh, good times. then.. here he is. singing?? alright. can't say i really dig this record but i'm happy to see he's moved on from the hardcore bands and he's actually singing. the band are nice enough guys but not much originality here. maverick will chew you up and spit you out... and i am guessing they did. anyhow, aaron at least youre doing it. stop trying to write music for "everybody" and write somethng for yourself... maybe you'll discover something a bit more genuine. that being said, this isn't really a bad record and if you like STP and other 90's post grunge bands... you might really like this. plus hey, aaron's my friend and i can't dis the guy.
