4 out of 5 stars Not the best Punk-O-Rama!   November 6, 2005
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

It has its high points, but some real stinkers contaminate it.

1. We Threw Gasoline... (A-) Not too appealing at first, but the chorus is incredible and irresistable

2. Everybodies Girl (A++) Pure bliss from start to finish! Unbelievable.

3. Worlds On Heroin (A-) A lazy opening riff? Nah, it picks itself up quickly, impressivley.

4. Say Anything (A+) It only gets one plus because it's too short!

5. Delinquent Song (A-) Some ska is here. Slower than its predecessors, but it's excellent with the right mindset.

6. Everready (A-) Good.

7. Greed Motivates (A) Grabs you and goes really fast!

8. Telepath Boy (A-) Fun for all 50 seconds it lasts.

9. Never Connected (A-) Nice.

10. Gotta Go (Grade not available) I always skip this, so I wouldn't know.

11. Defiled (A-) Rockin'!

12. Haula$$ Hyena (B+) Kinda annoying and familiar.

13. Rats In The Hallway (A-) There were better songs on Rancid's debut (Hyena, Detroit, Rejected.)

14. Steel-Toed Sneakers (A) Great!

15. Bad Seed (D+) They sure got the "bad" part right.

16. Rotten Egg (A) Annoying to some, but I love it.

17. Poison Steak (A) Annoying to some, but I love it.

18. No Equalizer (Grade not available) Once again, I always skip it.

19. Alright (A-) Since this is a demo song, it's kinda trite and sterile, but OK.

20. A.D.D. (B-) Why do I have to force myself to listen to it if I'm not too crazy about it?

21. Lozin' Must (F) Millencolin, Millencolin, Millencolin, you're capable of much more than this puke.

22. You (A++) Quite a contrast from Lozin' Must, indeed.

23. Ordinary Fight (A+) Would've been an excellent ending song, but no...

24. If (C) ...this mediocrity had to be dropped.

25. Wake Up (C-) An unreleased Pennywise song. Unfortunately, listening to it makes it clear why it was left off the superior Full Circle.

I personally think Punk-O-Rama 5 is the CD to get first. On Punk-O-Rama 3, few of the tracks hit that "Aw yeah, this is amazing" vibe or are very memorable. On Punk-O-Rama 5, the tracks by Zeke, Millencolin, All, Bouncing Souls, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Union 13, Osker and Pennywise all surpass those on Punk-O-Rama 3.



5 out of 5 stars Easily the best Punk-o-Rama   July 15, 2005

This introduced me to the world of Epitaph punk. Good thing it was like 8 years ago instead of now because Epitaph sucks now.
If you're looking for some good (relatively old, god now with crap like My Chemical Romance, this punk seems like millenia ago...) punk, you better pick this up. All the songs are catchy and they'll make you want to go pick up old Bouncing Souls, old Bad Religion and old Millencolin. Good things in life.

5 out of 5 stars Very cheap, one of the best Punk-O-Ramas   March 4, 2003

Punk-o-Rama 3 is a brilliant album. It's a single cd compilation. It has some of the best names in punk on this album, like Pennywise and Rancid. It has 27 songs on it, so you are bound to like a few songs on it, but this isnyt a problem actually as 99% of the songs are good, but it does have some really bad ones too. The album is like a taster for all the bands contained on the cd as it is only $4 .99, which I donyt think, is bad at all. This album is a good way to see which bands you will like.
This also contains one song that you can't buy anywhere else, for example NOFX's "We threw Gasoline on the fire and now we have stumps for arms and no eyebrows" which is a really good song .
