The Queers Album: “Love Songs for the Retarded [Asian Man]”

Other bands would kill for having a greatest hits collection this good. This is just one album (albeit probably the best) from a diehard act that's still going strong after gobs of albums (and infinite band replacements to back up Joe Queer). Go to a Queers show and you'll hear just about every one of these songs, including the classic "Granola Head."

So just what are the Queers? Think of the Ramones: take a singer with a somewhat nasal voice, songs with simple but powerful hook-based choruses that you can't forget ("f the world I'm hanging out with you tonight!"), and fast 3-chord guitar downstrums.

Buy this and Don't Back Down for the best introduction to the Queers. Give 'em each 3 listens and you'll either still hate 'em or you'll be hooked. I'm hooked, and have picked up everything else since then.

This is an awesome album for fans of snotty punk rock. The music is fast and melodic, with great, silly in your face lyrics. For fans of Beat Off this is a must-buy album, while it doesn't have the surfy songs of Beat-Off, the rest of the album is very similar to the punky songs of Beat Off. I recommend this album for fans of Ramones influenced, snotty, silly punk.

see title, buy it and enjoy.... oh yeh... only $12ppd direct from lookout records....

Can't go wrong with this one.

"Teenage Bonehead" is the greatest punk song ever!

The queers are a really great band who dont get half the credit they deserve.Punk rock confidential was better, but this is a great cd.
