Wow this comp has a lot of bands. It's kind of a record label sampler, beings most of the bands are on Asian Man Records and most of the songs have already been released. Actually all of the Asian Man Records bands are represented I believe. This is kind of like a follow up to the first compilation called, Mail Order is Fun. The really cool thing about this CD is that you get 28 bands for only $3.99, Asian Man Records is so cool, and this is all to promote mailorder, they love mailorder. Most of their full lengths are only $8 via mailorder, with no shipping to pay. Another cool thing with this comp is that is has a neat bio in the liner notes about Asian Man Records, written by Mike "Bruce Lee" Park, the owner of the label. While yet another cool aspect of this CD is the fact that Mike let his friend who owns a label called Tomato Head Records put 8 of his bands on the end of this comp. Bands that you may have never gotten the chance to hear if it was not for this compilation.
For $4 (I think that's how much it costs) you can't go wrong by picking this up. It features some of the best ska, punk, and pop around. The Tuesday song, "So Awake" is almost worth the price of the CD. If you're a fan of ska or punk, or just interested in checking out some new bands, I'd recommend getting a copy of this one.

Decapolis 2000Reviewed by ConradThis is one solid compilation. This is a bunch of Asian Man releases all on one CD. Since most of what Asian Man puts out is good - you automatically get a good compilation. Most of the stuff on here is poppy ska and punk. We've reviewed a bunch of these albums already. One correction I would like to make - Potshot is better than the grade I gave them in my past review - I don't know what I was…Decapolis 2000Reviewed by Tom BastianWow this comp has a lot of bands.
