"This cd is superior. This is the type of cd that raises the bar so high in every way that every other band needs to put out at least twice as much effort to make anything decent. The guitar work on this cd is simply mind-blowing. Guitarist Jackson Mould singlehandedly raised the bar so high that the band's future guitarists still haven't quite reached it yet.--Not that they are not great guitarists with their own unique contributions. The drumming of Joe Nixon works in perfect tandem with Mould's guitaring, a hard trick to pull especially with such consistently fast-paced music. Not only is it in pefect timing, but also is innovative and intricate in every fill, break, and verse. Jeremiah Brown's bassing adds the perfect flavor behind every guitar note and creates the emotional factor that seems to support the whole band. Brown manages to find notes that reach into your heart rather than always just playing the same chords as the guitar. Ryan Kepke's singing and songwriting leads the band perfectly. It is as if everything the music is saying in itself is being brought to light in the melodies and lyrics. Perfect complementing amongst band members. wow"
AWESOME!!!!

"I love this cd!!!! It's so rad! I like this one better than burn out, but burn out is good, too. Slick Shoes RULE!!!!! If you like punk, this is an excellent Christian cd to get. They have good lyrics and catchy songs. They sound quite a bit like mxpx, but personally, I like this better than mxpx. It's so awesome!! Buy this cd!"
If you like fast punk, you can't get a better buy than this!

"OH YEAH! I love this cd. one day I was surfing the web and I found this band called slick shoes, and relized (exept for mxpx) that they were my fav band. I think that this is their best cd.this is how I would rate the songsfeeble: great way to start off the cd. 9/10
cliche: very catchy song. 8/10
regrets: great song with a nice intro on the drums. 8/10
rusty: this is my least favorite song on the cd, but it is still great. The only song that is mostly pop punk on the cd. 7/10
Joe's sick: You can't get better than this! 10/10
proved me wrong: another raging song that is great! 9/10
Father son picnic: my personal favorite song on the cd. It is a great song with a great gutair solo at the end! 11/10!!!
losing sight: a great song but after father and son picnic you really can't compare. the gutair is very soft. 8/10
fall: a great song that I think really picks up after losing sight. 9/10
Walk out: another raging song like the last 9. what can I say?! 9/10
Bounce: a very catchy song that is a bit different tham the others 9/10
Last: another one of my favorites.I just love it how slick shoes puts so much effort into each of their songs, not just put in fillers! 10/10
By what right: I think these guys could be put in the gineuss book of world records for fastest speaking in this song, but it is still great! 10/10
Tired of you: and they keep raging on. About being tired of someone ignoring you all the time so you let them go. 10/10
what happens next: a great song, but not as good as the last three. 8/10
Represent: I think the best way to end off a cd is to just race on some more. great fast song! 9/10I overall give this cd a 10/10 rating.
every single song on this cd is fast, raging punk!
buy this cd!"
One of the best Christian punk bands I have ever heard.

"Slick Shoes is a band I could listen to forever. Too many people compare them to Mxpx. This albums catchy guitar riffs and extremely fast drumming gives Slick Shoes a sound all their own. I recommend this CD to any loyal punk fan ( Christian or not ) Watch out for Slick Shoes in the future."
