Good, but not their best

"If you liked the first 2 cd's, you'll like this one. 1 Man Army is great. However, it seems that they have lost a bit of their street punk edge. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. They've matured as musicians and writers and this new album reflects that. New drummer, Chip Hanna (of US Bombs) brings a solid punk rhythm to all the songs, which is a nice compliment to Heiko's bass playing. He's also talked the boys into making the songs more anthemic. Now, you can sing along with the cd with 10 of your drunkest friends. Definitely recommended, but you won't be shouting "oi!" too often."

GREAT CD
