This band has gotten tons of hype and has a slew of full lengths and Eps floating around out in the record world. They have an upcoming tour with The Queers and they played with Municipal Waste in good old Anaheim aka Anal Slime. They looked and sounded like a band that should be on Epitaph but I thought hey people were shaking their money makers maybe I'm not getting it or something. Downloaded "From The Bottom" and it made me want to join a fraternity and hang out at the local pub while I sing along to their anthem infused pop punk. This sounds like a dirtier Bouncing Souls or Dropkick Murphys which is like being the slightly more shit stained toilet scrubber. Not only does the music do nothing for me and is completely predictable but the lyrics are generic "I'm sick of the bullshit" and "I don't give a fuck anymore" type stuff, which I have had enough of for a lifetime. When I saw them live the singer sang some words alone on stage that stated "Don't believe what you read, don't believe what you see on TV" and at that time Bulimia seemed like a more enjoyable alternative to watching them play. Yeah, some of this stuff might get stuck in your head but that never made Cher's "Believe" a good song. Or did it?
