"This is an awesome cd of fast Japanese ska, with a little punk blended in, that features some of the best horns I've heard in ska. The vocals could be annoying for some people because the guy sings in English with a heavy accent,though I believe the accent kinda makes the music sound a little better. I recommend this album to fans of fast catchy ska-punk, who can also enjoy a few slower songs."
It just doesn't get any better then this

"When I first heard of the album's genre, I was a little bit of a skeptic. But, any true music connoisseur will appreciate the intermingling of vocals, guitar solos, and magnificient bass riffs. I recommend this ablum to almost anybody with a love of music who's sick of the androgyny on the radio airwaves. As their debut album, this one simply kicks. My favorite is definitely the 10th track, however the instrumental track could use some help. But they do get much better, as followed up by their next two albums, 77 days which has a little more Less then Jake influence and then going back their own sound with a more polished feel in Senka-Senrui. If you love ska with a taste of punk, you'll be hooked by this band. They simply rock!"
