thats the whole fucking point. honesty, if you listen to punk and expect anything else you should go kill yourself. its supposed to be bluntly controbersial.

pretty good sound. im wondering what the twist is, but to the dude above who ceommented on leftover crack, yes, they are amazing. definitely one of my favorite bands of all time. check out choking victim if you like LOC, pretty much the same band but a different drummer.

What the hell do you mean "expect controversy"? The Ramones never stirred up major controversy like the D.C. Snipers will. All the true punkists sing about relevant things that they feel strongly about, its not just a sound.

They wont stir up any controversy. They arent gonna make it big, no punk bands will. You'll hear the name, think "oh snaps, that might cause some shit" and move on.

the dc snipers sing about nonsensical crap. they dont have a political stance. thats the point. their name is to make people pissed, but its not to make a political stance.
the twist is the keyboard effect on the other guitar. you can hear it in that song electric chair from siagon.

A few years ago there was some dude (or was it two guys?) who sniped at people (ie, shot at them from a distance with a high-powered rifle) and killed a bunch of people. Google "DC Sniper"

the lack of empathy people have is incredible. How can you joke that a dozen people lost their lives because they were gunned down like a bird in a hunting contest by insane murders. I don't want to hope anything bad happens to the kids in that band, but it is ridiculous that they have no respect for life, feelings, or crossing serious lines. I am truly sorry that no one ever loved them enough to show them their self worth

Wow, I really fucking hate them. I hope they die. If you suck that bad at making music that you have to piss people off and disrespect the dead to be noticed, then you shouldn't even be in the music business.

But Leftover Crack is actually realllllly good. They stir shit up, and it gets them noticed. They know how what they're doing.

Alright if they're good, then why be assholes and disrespect people like that? I garuntee you if ANYONE in that band even knew somone in those towers they wouldn't even touch the subject. It just amazes me how fucking low that is.

I doesn't matter, the first thing anyone looking at the cover of the record is going to think is: 'Wow, what a bunch of disrespectful assholes'. And I agree, if they knew anyone who was killed in those attacks, they wouldn't go making an albim cover like that, I know that they want to be all punk/nonconformist and all that shit, but there are certain lines of simple decency that should not be crossed.

There are alot of people who, I'm sure, will not listen to this album simply because of the cover...there are other ways to be heard.
