This is from our (relatively) new CD, The Swing of Things. Personally I'm not happy with the mastering job, but we got a huge discount, because we've got connections. :)

So enjoy 'I Burn Bridges,' and stay tuned after the song ends for our hidden track from the CD (Swing Thing, the CD's namesake), a special treat for anyone who cares enough to listen to us! It starts around 5:50, so you don't have to listen to such a long period of silence.

Also, our trombone player quit the band, and we're still breaking in the new one, so don't expect our next CD soon. But I'll probably upload more of our 2006/2007 CD in the near future.

Edit: If you want to vote zero, I'd appreciate a review letting me know why. We get plenty of good reviews, and that's great, but we want to improve, so don't be afraid to get ugly!

Thank you! We are here to fulfill all of your anti-techno needs. This is an old, half-heartedly mixed/edited/recorded song, so you are absolutely right that some parts are off, but we're improving a lot! Check out our newest song on NG, "Hurricanes and Tidal Waves." It's...weather-riffic?

"Cool"

Not very ska-ish, but I do seem to enjoy it. The vocals were Pretty good. A little out of control at some points, but not bad. I give it 8

Yeah, this is old stuff. We started off as a punk band, and when we went 'Ska' we were basically rock with horns. We've been evolving a lot, and have a sound very much more in line with traditional Ska now. Glad you liked the song, ZECOOL!

"Sweet"

I just seemed to happen upon this song and really liked it. I don't really know what to say, it's good. My only problem is the beginning, the guitar starts and then it's a little off when the keyboard comes in. I put the track in an audio editor and experimented with that part and cutting off the guitar by it self sounds much better to me. But all in all It's pretty great, and so is the special tidbit at the end, although it sounds like more of an intro to me. But good still. Hope your band keeps up, you guys are rather good.

You bet we'll keep up. This is definitely in our amateur editing days. We've improved immensely since then. Anywho, thanks for the review, Centaurboi!
