"I finally got the CD, and I have to say, it's excellent. Anyone who likes any kind of emo or punk at all will love it. The cliches and lyrics are really funny, too. If you want to know which songs to download, then get "King Of The Road," "Karate Chops For Everyone But Us," "Look, I Just Don't Like You," "American Hearts," and "The Monkey Vs. The Robot." I might as well have listed them all. The only one that I don't like is "Rich People Can Breed." It's a little weird. Some of their softer songs are "Long Nights," and "It's Going To Get Worse Before It Gets Better." For that matter, "Rock Revolution" on their EP is really good, too. All in all, I highly reccommend it. Drop whatever you're doing and run/drive/pedal/skip to the record store right now and buy it."

"After being around for a decade, you'd think the rest of the music community would've caught on to Piebald - oddly enough, they still haven't. Piebald's unique brand of tongue-in-cheek lyrics (and song titles), catchy hooks, and Travis' easily recognized singing shine through on this, their third full-length release.



Standout tracks are numerous, as almost every song on the CD might end up being your favorite. The exception may be "It's Going To Get Worse Before It Gets Better," - the tempo slows to a drag, and the song just doesn't fit well with the rest of the album. No matter, the rest more than make up for it. Favorites of mine include: "Fear And Loathing On Cape Cod," "Karate Chops For Everyone But Us," and "The Stalker". Accompanying videos were made for Just A Simple Plan and American Hearts, and are definitely worth a look.



Hailing from Massachusetts, Piebald will be touring with Say Anything and MewithoutYou this fall, via their vegetable-grease-fueled tour van. I wouldn't recommend missing them."

"What can I say? except WOOT WOOT this album is greatness. Piebald is one of the best and most underrated bands ever. they totally own the Beatles. yes i just said that. It takes a few listens to fully appreciate this album, but when you listen to it closely you'll realize its genious. These songs will amaiz you and move you whether they're about a broken down bus, or a stalker, or symbolic monkeys and robots. It's hard to put them in a musical genre or label, and I dont think they want to be in one. Theyre too good for a genre, and if they were in a genre theyd be found under "AWESOMENESS". Their lyrics are smart-alecky and DEEp at the same time. There isnt a band out there that's as funny and effortlessly awesome as Piebald. you'll listen to it for "Long Nights" to come. that was lame but oh well. if you dont like piebald i will come and fight you.go buy their other albums too. if you do, I'll take my pills."
