Despite this album having crappy audio quality, the band actually has a great punk sound! They remind me of The Forgotten, Rancid, El Centro and The Swingin’ Utters. The band signed to Pirates Press Records but still opted to record their album the old fashion way, by themselves. They recorded the album in a smoky studio in Jersey, and this album is the result of that. I thought the album quality would make me hate this but the band sounds too good to knock them just for their studio sound. And besides, they seemed to have capture that old 80’s punk/hardcore sound with this type of recording. I don’t actually mind that because that’s the stuff I grew up on, and that’s what the Lucky Stuffs grew up on as well. Each song has a lot of energy, and it’s just a classic punk sound that many bands don’t have anymore.

Bottom Line: Old school sounding punk band with great songs.
