BEYOND THE VALLEY -- an awesome record I've never understood why this album is overlooked, or why some of the reviews on this site are negative. I'm a huge Queers fan and consider them the best punk band ever, along with the Ramones. This is a fantastic record, one of the Queers' best. Every song is brimming with great pop hooks and great punk edginess. In fact, I like this album a lot more than DON'T BACK DOWN, which most people consider their best. Two features which really distinguish BEYOND THE VALLEY are (1) the lyrics are filled with more bile (just check out the song names -- hilarious!) than the other full-length records and (2) Wimpy sings on two of the tracks. If you like the Queers, get this album now!.
The Queers - 'Beyond The Valley.....' (Hopeless)
I've never seen this band play before and that's a shame because they've played my area numerous times before. Yet,another disc release by those fabulous(yeah,right)potty-mouth speaking guys in this long-running all American 'vicious' punk band. Let's face up to the fact,that if there were an award for the most offensive CD of the month,The Queers would most likely win hands down. Some of the tunes here are actually likable,such as "Strangle The Girl","In With The Out Crowd" and "I Wanna Know". But,with tracks like,"I Just Called To Say F*** You" and "Just Say Cu**"(love it!)makes one think these guys are trying just THAT much harder to piss more and more people off. Is that real punk or what?Just might appeal to fans of Minor Threat,Ramones,Nerf Herder and maybe even Screeching Weasel.
blech
Granted, the 'stupid' is probably intended, but theres nothing fresh or funny about their attitude anymore. These guys sound old, tired and stupid. It's just [bad]. Their fans will eat this up as there should be enough of the predictable Queers sound to satisfy them (a few catchy hooks, dumb lyrics & the same [bad] image), but they won't be impressing anyone else.
bad production
this one has good songs but the vocals seem to get drowned out on alot of the tracks. i have all the queers records and i love them all. thats the only problem i have with the disc. otherwise another good record from joe.
the Queers strike again
Wow. . all I want to know is, who pissed Joe Queer off lastyear? I'm a really big Queers fan, and this bunch of songs is the mostexplicit and the most angry I've ever heard these guys. Is this a bad thing? No! I can pretty much relate because in the past year I've had experiences that've made me more angry & jaded than ever before. This CD still has the same great hooks and great punk guitar work that the previous Queers cd's have had. My own personal favorites are "Little rich working class oi Boy", "In with the out Crowd", & "I just called to say ____ You". This is of course, a must for any Queers fan, and a great cd for any any punk rocker to own. I hope they'll be doing a massive tour soon. . . but don't waste any more time. . . buy this cd today!.
