I'm not sure how this album would be classified... Whether to call it an anthology... probably not. It's not a greatest hits either. More a collection of songs that are either hard to find or never released...what would you call that? I call it pretty fucking awesome, as it covers all that Narcoleptic Youth has done over the past ten years in, well, "Chronilogical Disorder". A nice play on the fact that the songs are in somewhat of chronilogical order from oldest to newest material from the band. If you've never heard anything by the band, think old school punk rock from the late seventies...like Sex Pistols. Its loud snotty, thrashing, maybe moreso like the Dead Boys. However, the band is more into having fun and using thier clever humor to deliver two minute splashes of classic punk rock sounds. The disc has twenty-two tracks on it guaranteed to make you smile and jump about. You won't be disappointed with what Narcoleptic Youth has put on this disc, especially if you are a long time fan looking for new music, well old I guess, that hasn't been in print in one form or another for a while. Check out Narcoleptic Youth for a full dose of classic punk rock music brought to life again for all to enjoy. -MG |
