Sign The Bill is the highlight to me, although it is generally well written melodic hardcore, and some funny obtuse songs like DMV which sound pretty serious with a Bad Religion-ish sound, but it's just about somebody who's real proud of his driving test score, drives while ignoring most of what he learned in the driving school crashes his car, "now time to go back to the DMV". Heh. Otherwise, I liked the dynamics of Chris Dodge being the second singer on here, if you don't know who that guy is you're likely not a person I'd like to talk about music with, he formed Sheep Squeeze, then when he left NUFAN after Don't Miss The Train formed Spazz and with Charles Bronson were the masters of Power Violence in the 90's. Although he was talented enough to play as lead guitarist on Don't Miss The Train where the dual-vocals thing was dialed down, maybe only in 2 songs max is he allowed to sing a word or a phrase. Tony taking controls as his voice is better on the follow-up than this one, but that doesn't matter. I had a cassette tape, official, with Incognito on one side and Don't Miss The Train on the other my much older cousin gave to me, so I played these 2 (and Daily Grind) to death and they stand the test of time.
