"Have seen their live show countless times (it's great!) and CD does not disappoint. Originals are all strong. Also included are a few cover songs which they remake with their own flavor. Love the band's sense of humor and refusal to take themselves too seriously. Favorite tracks would be #4 Calling All Freaks and #2 F*ck You. Both are straight up radio friendly rockers without sounding schmaltzy. Entire album is strong (rare these days, esp for rock oriented bands). If I had a criticism, it would be that several of the tracks are too short (a couple only 30 sec onds long!) but in a way that is a part of HBE's charm. If you like hard alt rock with a taste of Spinal Tap buy this CD!!!"
