Disco de Mad Caddies: “The Holiday Has Been Cancelled [EP]”

With 'The holiday has been cancelled' Mad Caddies seem to prove themselves in a different style as they used to. This CD does not have the same amazing horns on it but concentrates more on guitars and the lead singer, also the background vocals are new - well not new, but different. Still it is a great CD and I would recommend you to buy it, but don't expect the same great music you are used to from 'Duck and Cover', this isn't all dixieland but rather rock and a little bit of ska.

I first heard of Mad Caddies from a punk compiliation that had S.O.S. on it. The first thing out of my mouth was "this band has talent!"

S.O.S. is definately my favorite track, but closely followed by Falling Down. Really, all 5 tracks are excellent and leave you wanting more.

Submitted for your approval: 5 tracks of varying lengths and difficult horn parts, with lyrics that really make you wonder how emo this band really is. I know that sounds wacky, considering that the Mad Caddies, for all intents and purposes, are a Fat Wreck punk/ska band with blistering drum beats, super fast power chords, and a goofy stage show to be reckoned with. But come in closer, and take a look at just how emo the Caddies really are:

EXHIBIT TWO: Liner Notes

I have seen the mad caddies live and they are absolutely amazing. I heard all these songs live back in February and they all rocked live. After listening to this cd, i was totally rockin out again. It isn't the same as hearing them live, but it is awesome. BUY THIS CD AND SEE THIS BAND LIVE....THE BEST SONG IS "fALLING dOWN!" BUY THIS CD. IT ROCKS!

I am ecstatic about this EP, its all that I have come to expect. The guitars are heavy, the horns are smooth, and all sounds are true to mad caddie style. If you liked any of their other albums, then more than likely you will like this one.
