CD Reviews

In a word: Disappointing.

"Give 'Em The Boots I and II are punk-rock neccessities. Sprinkled with ska, reggae and rocksteady, they were truly palatable for those of us with eclectic tastes. Sadly, Give 'Em The Boot III purifies itself of most of the reggae and ska from it's two previous outings, leaving us with a punk rock wasteland. The songs here just simply aren't up to Hellcat's high standars. There are a few good moments (The Slackers' BRILLIANT "Information Error", the Tiger Army video) but that is outweighed by a parade of messy and talentless punk rock. Even the Rancid track is anemic.Although, for [the money], "Give 'Em The Boot III" isn't much of a gamble. Still, it's been three years since Vol. II, and III frankly falls flat on it's body-pierced face."
Not as good as Give em the boot 2....

"I was excited when I saw that their was a new Give em the boot compilation out, as Give em the boot 2, is one of my favorite cd's ever. Although when I played this cd I was sad to hear that the reggae and ska sounds that where on Give em the boot 2 have been substituted for a straight ahead punk compilation. Not to mention that the quality of songs on this album, are nowhere as good as the tracks selected for the two previous Give em the boot cd's. If you are going to get a Give em the Boot cd, buy the second installment, it is much better..."

"Okay, Give Em The Boot I & II were rad, but this pulls up far short of those comps. The best bands - Rancid, DKM, LFB, US BOMBS - all have songs on here that have been previously released, so there's nothing value-added from them. Yeah, Cupid's Victim is a really good song and the videos aren't bad, but they're readily available on the net, so, again, nothing new. I'm down with different types of music but the ska on here is weak and the pyscobilly stuff is unlistenable. Devils Brigade is a disappointment. The only bright spots are the good effort by Duane Peters & the Hunns and the rad track "Give Em The Boot"Originally I'd heard this disc was going to include a previously unreleased song by LFB and a new video by Rancid, which would have made it much better. Even if the bands on this record had rerecorded different versions of released material, there would be something new for fans. There wasn't even a sticker included like with the last comp.Save your [money]."
