Bunit it wasn't exclusively procrastination, I've been working lots of long hours on top of going to school.

DBlitz, anything else worth checking in what respect? More D4? Similar artists?

You really, really can't go wrong. Just get whatever you find first. Even "This Shit is Genius" is solid, and that's a b-sides compilation. I'd say get Situationist Comedy or Midwestern Songs of the Americas next. I'd say the former is a little weaker, but only by a hair.

Okay, I'll look into both of em. This has grown on me though, excellent stuff.



How would this compare to their other stuff? About the same quality?

yeah, I'd say it's as good as anything they've done. a little more restrained with the whole "wall of sound" thing but other than that you'd be hard pressed to notice any major changes from situationist comedy to this. they're a very consistent band. If I ranked their albums, it'd probably be

1) Midwestern Songs

2a) C I V I L W A R

2b) Situationist Comedy

3) Versus God

But Versus God rules.

I've got Midwestern, and I'll get Situationist Comedy soon, but I think I'm more partial to Civil War at the moment. This album needs more attention.

Yea, this is probably my favourite too. Then its Midwestern, I haven't listened to Situationist Comedy much, and still need to get Versus God.

This has grown on me heaps, at first I honestly thought it was a collection of just solid punk songs, but this is probably the best straight up punk record of '08.

I seriously thought about bumping this to a 4.5 but then I stopped listening to this obsessively and forgot about it. Suuuuch a good album though.

I just got back from seeing D4. Fucking great show. I also finally picked up a hard copy of this. I never did give it a rating... Probably a 4.5.

By the way, Japanther is just fucking weird. I mean that in the best possible way.
