This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
The real spirit of punk rock lives at gigs — in stinky, smoke-filled firetraps where sweaty guys in leather jackets let loose for a beer-soaked, moshing pack of fans.
And it’s that spirit that infuses this live EP from American punks Bouncing Souls, taped last year at a dodgy N.Y. dive. These nine tracks are jammed chockablock with churning, surging punk odes, joyfully loose performances and between-song patter. The only thing better would be to have been there.
