The song, "Come All And Blow Your Brains Out" is all you need to know about how listening to this disc by RIFU made me feel.

These earnest, political punks from Trondheim, Norway trample topics such as war, the environment, etc, all with good lyrics and musicianship by the various members: Erland Lanke-bass,vocals, Stian Andreassen-guitar, Oyvind Sarheim-lead vocals,guitar, and Ola Petersen ヨ drums, backing vocals.

These guys have been around for a long time and must have a dedicated following. If political punk is your thing, RIFU is right up your anarchy-flag-flying alley...I, however, can only say that, listening to this somehow makes me feel old. I am old. I'm going to go listen to some Leonard Cohen or Lou Reed now to feel better about myself.

That said, "Let Them Eat Bombs" totally rocks!
