2008-02-26 Timeless Gritty, poppy, serious, fun, punk rock, and Nancy Sinatra covers...
All those things seem contradictory. But Operation Ivy were all of these things. Pick this up, then pick up Seedy... hunt down anything else you can and sadly regret that there wasn't more.
2007-09-30 one of the greatest albums of all time *totally* positive, *totally* progressive, not *at all* smacking of over-indulgent self-obsessiveness OR holier-than-thou self-righteousess.. this album managed to be totally extreme while avoiding all negative extremes.. a truly great piece of work... what can one say? simply put, one of the greatest albums of all time... yes, I remember where I was, who I was, and when I was first listening to this album... it shaped me and gave me a voice... brilliant
