It’s been a while since we had one of these… eight years to be exact. I remember when vol. 2 came out in the mid 90s. It taught me pretty much everything I needed to know about punkrock and I never looked back since.
It’s 2010 now… that means there’s no more Hi-Standard or Diesel Boy to be found on here. Fat Wreck mainstays such as No Use For A Name and Good Riddance are still featured on here along with the Mad Caddies and Swingin’ Utters. In today’s music scene there aren’t a lot of bands that stay with the same label for a long time, yet over at Fat Wreck they prove that it’s still possible.
The newer bands on the label’s roster are represented as well of course. And listening to the songs by Old Man Markley, The Flatliners, Pour Habit and Cobra Skulls, everyone can rest assured. Even if all the trusty Fat Wreck names should call it a day tomorrow, the future of the label is already guaranteed.
Score: 8 out of 10
