Oh, the glories of the discount rack

"not that you care... but let me tell you a little story. i went to a cd store, pretty low on cash and with nothing particular in mind to purchase. this being the situation, i began to paw through the "3 for 5 dollars" rack. Bong was one of the cds there. i was enthralled by the band's name (i had never heard of them before) and hey, i'll buy almost anything for 1.66. i went home and slipped the 20-minute cd into a stereo. expecting total trash, i was shocked to discover that this is extremely good music! something i would have spent more than a buck and 2/3 on! the musicians are talented, the lyrics are fun, and NFAD is not just one of those carbon-copy bands (many of which have cds and songs running rampant in cd players, on the airwaves, and in heads everywhere.) for something a little bit different, rather impressive, and just plain enjoyable, buy this. personally, i just might buy another of their cds... though it may cost a little more than the first. :) *note: this music is especially good, in my humble opinion, for listening to whilst doing crunches or sit-ups."

Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy
