Hmmmm....wow....what can I say? This album is just really bad. New Brutalism has a stoner post punk sound but it's not as artsy as it sounds. "2001-2003" is a compilation of their work, as you can probably tell from the title of the album, over the years of 2001, 2002 and 2003. The recording quailty of this album is just horrible. I can't turn up my cd player loud enough to get a hold of everything. It's very annoying. I don't really dig their sound either. It's sluggish at times and just boring. It seems to be a vain attempt to artsy with rock and trying not to be at the same time. It's just bad.

The Phantom Tollbooth 2005Reviewed by Kevin MathewsYou've gotta laugh! I mean, how seriously can we take this punk trio? It cannot even be bothered to give their songs titles -- instead we get numbers like 048, 056.00, and 026. Which I presume is meant to convey the cold hard facts of modern life. Well and good. But surely that message comes across better wrapped in a great melody and danceable rhythms? No? All this earnest hollering leaves me…Similar sounding releases
