I did not buy this album thinking that it would be good at all, and I was half right. The main reason I purchased this was to see what the Dead Kennedys were like 14 or 15 years after breaking up. The stage energy is still there, but you can definitely sense that something is missing and that this is not the Dead Kennedys that we are used to. There are some points on this album that won't make you feel like you just wasted a bunch of money. The changed words to California Uber Alles are definitely a standout along with MTV Get Off The Air. There are maybe a couple more shining moments, but that's about it. Overall, I don't regret buying this album, but I feel like this should only be for a dedicated DK fan.
