Customer Reviews G.I. meets Exile On Main Street Great band. Great stuff. Great live shows. Lots of noisy fun. . . and the guy in the White House today suffers from the same speach impediment. Back then somebody must have thought it was really cool to use the f-word in a title. Don't let that bit of useless nonsense disuade you from picking up this inspired drunken mess of a recording today. Very entertaining if you like pop music as clever as it is loud and chaotic. Falling James is a true rock 'n' roll hero. Maybe Their Best Like Kill Tunes, this is one of their sloppiest and most fun albums. Cool, drunken, unique songwriting. The Leaving Trains have never let me down, they are a great band and you should buy this. And if you own only one, own this one. Don't Let the Title Fool You The title is the coolest I've ever heard, and the music mostly lives up. This is good bluesy drunk punk. Songs like "What Cissy Said" and "27 Days" really up the punk ante with semi-poetic lyrics and excellent musical backing. Others like "How Can I Explode" and "(I Don't Know) What (I'm Doing Here)" are just fun. The caveat is that this is only about half a good album: the nine-minute closer "What the President Meant to Say" is an irritating drone. .
