Ok, so after picking this up for 99 cents on Amazon months ago, Im just giving it a couple listens. If you've ever read my listmania submissions, you know that punk isn't really my favorite genre - but I'm really enjoying this! I'm a sucker for smart lyrics, and these guys have a cynical wit that I didn't expect, even after reading some of the lyrics... The production is clean without sounding artificial, and the drumming is kicking my ass. Thanks for the recommendation, Diesel & Cats

Glad you like it.

If things work out to plan, my and Cats' old band will eventually put out a split with The Brokedowns. Then we'll be fucking famous.

these are the greatest dudes i know

If you check my NP for the last couple of months, you'll notice that I've been digging it, too. Really good melodic hardcore.

And, cats... the album cover is freaking sweet, too!

well apparently they have a new split with the Sass Dragons -- also from the Elgin area I believe -- you can hear a couple new tracks on the Razorcake podcast here:
