This was another release that slipped through the radar that piqued our attention when we finally found out about it and had to check it out.  The latest from Citizen Fish carries on the high energy ska punk full of heavy meets skank guitar and horn fueled melodic accents.  This time around Dick, Jasper, Phil, Silas, and Alex tackle songs about unemployment, religious conflicts, war (and fear of), the need to document throughout, and life in Britain before things inevitably crash.  Slightly introspective, the band maintains their trademark anger throughout the chantable choruses and tight song hooks that manage to permeate the six songs on this disc.  While I wish this disc was longer, the tracks here do show Citizen Fish carrying on the feel from their previous album Goods and taking it forward for a riotous effect.  This band has existed apart from a lot of the ska trends of the past 20 years but living in it but not of it suits this band well.  Check it out   (BOONE)
