2002, Diaphragm Records. This was the last CD I had to review from the piles of mail that my mom didn’t bother sending me. And boy am I happy that this was the last CD I still had to review, as this CD definitely rocks. Don’t expect the sound of "You Can Still Rock in America", as this album is more poppy, more clean sounding, and if you can believe it, more rocking. While all of the songs are incredibly catchy, special kudos goes out to the band for "The Ballad of Skinhead Joe", a Floggin Molly-esque romp about a gay skinhead, and "The Day I Almost Died", which has an early-90s feel to it, almost along the lines of Pinhead Gunpowder or JFT. A Planet for Texas deserves the most improved award, as "Sprechen Sie Rock?" expands on the sound in "You Can Still Rock in America", and portrays A Planet for Texas as a band that has matured in the two year downtime between albums.It may seem clichéd, but look for these guys to hit it big, as the style of music that they play and the talent they possess are just ripe for plucking.
