Beware

"Amazon has this CD mixed up with another CD, by another band called Buck. Who also called their CD...Buck (as in, self-titled). I ordered this CD and did not get anything involving the wonderful Lisa Marr. Instead, I got a CD of turgid Christian Ska music. I'm not joking. Amazon needs to fix this."

At least one person in the world is a big stinker...

"As I write this review, I see that there's a used copy of Buck for sale. That's just wrong. I would sooner part with my awkward, geeky little body than this superlative CD. All exaggeration aside, Pepper and the Lisas have managed to make an album that is at once fun and ferocious, with infectious melodies and deliciously dark lyrics. Don't waste money on charitable donations or insulin for your mother. Buy this CD. But don't buy it used. We don't want to reward that one person who is giving up the perfect album, do we?"

"I first saw Buck when they opened for Dance Hall Crashers, back in '99 I believe.I loved them at first site.This album is perfect; there is no one like Lisa Marr.The lyrics are witty, and the music tight.Unfortunately, Buck broke up.Lisa went on to form the Lisa Marr Experiment, an alt-country group."4AM", LMX's debut album is charming in its own way, but it doesn't have the bite that this Buck album did. I was happy to learn that Lisa teamed up with Kim Shattuck of the Muffs to form the Beards.Their debut album was released in '01, and it really rocks!! If you love Buck, you'll love the Beards(their album is, in my opinion, better than any of Lisa or Kim's other bands)...also,go out and buy the new LMX, Lisa Marr is an extremely talented musician, who deserves recognition and support."
