"Well I dont know why but Useless ID have got to be one of the most underrated bands i know, why they aren't at least as famous the ataris I will never know. You keep seeing bands like Good Charlotte gracing our screens and allthough they have a lot of fans they aren't real music(no offence to any Good Charlotte fans). Useless id are real pop-punk and this CD just proves it, they have gone for the pretty much same formula as with their first album and it works well. What I like about useless id is the fact that all their songs don't sound the same, instead every song has its own identity and they aren't afraid to use acoustics in probably the best song on the album Diary. My favourites of this album Unhappy Hour, Birthday Song, Weird Rock,Diary, At least I tried, End. Special mentions to Bring me down and The worst holiday I've every had. BUY IT!!!"

"its simply ridiculous that these guys arent as big and arent ibgger than many of the other pop/punk bands in the scene. I cannot wait for their new CD to come out this year (2005)!!!



please buy this CD and tell your friends about it!!!



sure, these guys may not be musical giants, but if you want music to have a good time to, but still better than your average good charlotte, then listen to this and buy it!!!"

Amazing melodic punk love songs

"Following the same successful formula of their last album, "Bad Story, Happy Ending," Useless ID puts out another record that flies by and sings to the ears. If you are a fan of fast paced melodic punk songs about love, you will love this cd. If you liked their last cd, you will definitely like this one. "No Vacation..." follows the same patterns of their last cd, but without being tiresome and redundant. As good as their last cd was, this is a definite improvement. Yokam's (lead singer)voice has matured and creates some amazing harmonies with the all important punk "whoa oh's" in the background on many songs. In the same spirit of the Ataris, and much more talented than other rip-off pop bands such as Simple Plan who attempt to follow the same formula and sell it to the MTV crowd at the same time, this is an amazing record that you will play over and over."
