'Slack Mother****er' may just be my anthem. It's hard to pick a few favorite songs, but that's up there...

I always listen to it on my way into a work shift haha, but I've read it is actually about getting fed up with a lazy coworker and not so much promoting slacking off.

I've listened to all of their early stuff through Where The Strings Come In and Majesty Shredding, not sure if any of the albums from in-between is worth it or not. I think they are more mellow than Majesty...

I have only listened to the self-titled album, but thought it was decent, nothing overtly groundbreaking.. but a good listen. Downloading "No Pocky for Kitty" right now, hear it a big step up from the first album. Sounds good.

Have to listen to more of this band to know how I feel about them. But from what I have heard it has been interesting.

I think they're kind of a singles band, not really known for a masterpiece of an album. But everything they released early in their career has at least a few killer tracks on them...

Listening to "No Pocky..." now. I enjoy it a lot more than the first album so far. Going to have to get another album by them after.
