The Queers Album: “Punk Rock Confidential”

Punk Rock Confidential is no doubt the unofficial sequel (in terms of songwriting talent) to previous Lookout! breakthrough "Don't Back Down". PRC is just amazing. As with any album, it may take some time to get used to, but sooner or later, fans and non-fans alike will build a love for this 15+ track collection of love, attitude, and carefree songs. This excellent lineup consists of frontman Joe Queer, guitarist Dangerous Dave, bassist Chris Almighty (of John Cougar Concentration Camp fame) and Steve Stress beatin' the skins. Songs that really stick out are "Tamara's a Punk", "Everything's OK", "Like a Parasite", and the title track, but every song is awesome in its own way. A must-buy, especially if you like Don't Back Down.

This album is a good one. Most of the songs seem like filler the first couple of listens but if you give it a couple of months, the songs will start to grow on you and you'll love them. In my opinion, the very best song on this whole entire album is "The Sun Always Shines Around You". All of the other songs are great but that one has became one of my favorite songs by The Queers. Compared to "Don't Back Down" and "Love Song For the Retarded" it seems pretty weak but what I keep saying to people is that each Queers album is unique in its own way. If you are new to The Queers I wouldn't get this as your first cd by them. Pick up Love Songs or Don't Back Down first!

I love these guys, they all grew up and made it from my hometown which kicks ass! They are the epitome of old school, ass kickin punk rock.

CHECK IT OUT!

I bought the vinyl of this album (which makes it even cooler) and I gotta say that every song on this CD is awsome. They are really into loving things, which is a bit of change from their earlier work (check out their other album "Day Late and a Dollar Short"). I was surprised by the depth of the vocals and harmonies, very cool. One warning, you probably don't want to blast this CD with your parents in the same room Cheers

Great stuff. You just can't be dissapointed with these sorts of catchy love/hate/punk/life dittys. The Queers rock. Better than Keel, even. Hey, wasn't that one guy in Dahmer's Diner? DAHMER'S DINER!! WOO HOO!
