"the agenda. the agenda-tron. the awesome agenda-tron. the super awesome, never faulting aganeda-tron. this music is great. who cares if garage rock is the new emo? then don't listen. i am sure you were just sooooo into this before it was cool huh? and i am sure you liked rites of springs before your neighbor did huh? if you take this music for more than what it is, a catchy, fun, and simple album, then you are thinking too hard.
have you seen the video for crash!crash!? it is one of the best visual documentations of a song ever completed in the history of mankind. it is truley scrumtrulescent....
listen to le'le'...."

I'm sorry, this CD is cool.

"This album is cool. It's just great high-energy rock music. I don't think I'd call it punk, even though it's fast and borders on low-fi, but whatever. I like it. You're going to get a lot of fast, distorted guitar, '70s-ish keyboard, drums that go "snare! snare! snare! snare!" and a singer who literally howls, and is, more often than not, un-understandable. But it's fun and energetic and you'll probably beat your steering wheel with your fists if you listen to it in the car. I would recommend it if you like the rock music. Also, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are awesome."

Promises nothing more than a good time, and delivers

"The new wave of garage rock is like classic rock in car commercials: everyone is doing it, some better than others. The Agenda! are doing pretty damn well, thank you.Within the first 2 seconds of the laser hitting the disc, you're in for a great ride at the speed of sound. The Agenda! have no time to slow down, everything is urgent and right now, which is a good thing. You can feel the energy with every note and every scream. You can almost see the basement party spring up around you when you listen to this disc.There's not too much variety, to be sure, but who cares? "Last Chance for Action" through "No More Dancing" are superb, 1000 bpm songs about young lust and living in the moment. You won't put this on while having your girlfriend over for dinner; this is the soundtrack for the guys night out at the strip club and the bar crawl that follows into the morning."
