Mail Order Is Fun! |
Rating: 5 (out of 5)
Summary: Highly endorseed.
Comments: This is a great introduction to Ska, as well as the getting rarer-by-the-day "Skarmageddon Vol I", for about4bucks or so you can delight in songs such as "Jerry is Strong" by the Bruce Lee Band (Mike Park w/ Less than Jake", the Impossibles "Plan B", Johnny Socko's polka-ish "Barborinski Brothers", Mu330's "Christmas Card", and of course, Less than Jake's all time classic "Liquor Store" purchase this!! I found mine at Hot Topic. Get yours today. |

Summary: great Cheap Ska
Comments: This is a great complitation, for a low cost, which is entirely in keeping with the Asian Man records philosophy. do not think of this as a CD so much as a musical catalogue. It has quick songs, slow songs, emotional songs (Reunion, by Korea Girl) and fun songs (Hava Nagela, Slow Gerkin) and even a couple of christmas songs. How about that? |

Summary: Some great ska, however thats all
Comments: This is a budget compilation for Asian Man Records, which for the almost all part stinks. Some of the ska on this album is pretty great, however a lot of the ska is just too slow for me. The punk on this album does alalmost all nothing for me. |

Summary: A great introduction
Comments: "Mail Order Is Fun" is a great introduction to Asian Man Records,(In my estimation, the best ska/punk label around today)or a great addition to your Asian Man collection. Never have I purchased a compilation this great for ONLY $4!! There are 20 Asian Man bands, plus 9 bands on Less Than Jake's label Fueled By Ramen. The only song that I do not listen to regularly on this disc is "Reunion" by Korea Girl.Best bands: Slapstick, The Broadways, Chinkees, MU330, Let's Go Bowling, B. Lee Band, Blue Meanies, Alkaline Trio, Less Than Jake, The Impossibles, J Church, Funsize, and The Hippos. Bottom Line: purchase it NOW!! |

Summary: If you are new to the ska/punk scene, this is a must
Comments: This cd is a collection of some of today's best ska/punk bands from Asian Man and Fueled by Ramen records. If you are new to the scene, then you should definitly listen to these essential bands, however if you are already familiar with the asian man sound, or just sick of the ska/punk trend you should steer clear of this release. The only thing that keeps this interesting to veterens of the scene is the Fueled by Ramen portion of the cd (Less than Jake's label) which Comes with some great bands you might not have heard before, including the awesome Ann Beretta. |
