These guys are always a bit of fun! Though at times I wish they'd crank the guitars were cranked a bit more.

I find this review to be strange for the following reasons:

1. How come you've not reviewed Sex Pistols "Never Mind The Bollocks" given the massive influence of that album on heavy metal?

2. Also why not bands like The Exploited who turned more metal in later days?

3. Or stuff ala Stampin Ground, Madball or Vision of Disorder who are true Metalcore (as opposed to Americanised melodic Death Metal)?

One of my favs from this year, though I must disagree on Memorial Day being a weak song.

I haven't reviewed any of that stuff because (with the exception of Sex Pistols and some Madball here and there) I haven't listened to any of those bands. I'm not a huge punk fan but I really dig what Dropkick Murphys does. I wasn't aware that I shouldn't review Dropkick Murphys until the site has a larger amount of punk reviews in the database. Sorry dead1, I promise I won't fuck that one up again.

I was just curious why a lot of the more Metal connected Punk had not been reviewed.

Obviously the reviewers review what they're interested in.

That's basically what it all boils down to, heh. I meant no disrespect, was just having a bit of fun. :)
