I’m quite certain that this is their best album since Don’t Back Down, but that’s not saying all that much. I don’t know quite how good it is yet. There are definitely a few clunkers on it, that’s for sure. So far I think the best song is actually the slow Beach Boys-ey keyboard one, and I don’t appear to be alone in that by any means.
If so, I briefly listened to it when they had some songs streaming on Punknews. Some of the songs I liked, others weirded me out because I didn’t think The Queers used keyboards or anything, but I’m sure I could get used to that quite easily.
But my Queers knowledge is limited to only a handful of songs, actually. I think I’ve got an album somebody (you?) gave me for sampling them somewhere on my computer, so I should give that a proper listen some time.
I like ’em, but I have not (YET?) liked them enough for them to jump to the top of my list of bands I wanna order stuff from. If I saw an album for cheap I might pick it up, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen Queers albums for sale here. Maybe I don’t look in the Q section often enough.
Um, so in conclusion…The Queers and their new album are not bad from what I can tell?
take. hear.
