Very nostalgic re Repeater. It's held up over the years, too. And The Argument is awesome as well. In fact, I can't think of one thing they've done that I don't like.

Aren't you from Czech Republic by chance?

It refers to a really bad combat situation. If I remember correctly, I believe it was coined by US soldiers during the Vietnam War. "Fucked Up" refers to someone lowering their guard or doing something to draw attention. "Got Ambushed" is pretty self-explanatory. "Zipped In" refers to the killed soldier being zipped up in a body bag.

Cause there was a music journalist back in the while there that kept writing about indie/post-HC music with the same pseudonym as you have.

Just wondering.

I like some of their records but i couldn't listen to them all the time because they seem to be all mostly about anger, and that can be depressing after a while. Repeater is a favourite, but really, you wish they would cheer the fuck up a little on a few of them.

I actually think "By You" is just about the best thing they've ever recorded.

That is absolutely one of their best songs. Couldn't agree more.

hahaha I ALWAYS have this stuck in my head for some reason. All the time when I'm walking down one set of stiars at school I'm thinking "Fucked up, Got Ambushed, Zipped in..."

I blame it on the parents.

Probably my personal favorite is actually Long Distance Runner off Red Medicine. I haven't been listening to them lately but I think I might change that.

Oh totally......I can't listen to ANY record more than twice a year or so unless it is new and from one of my favorites bands......and frankly this rarely happens anymore. That being said, I've listened to Rather Ripped about a million times in my car.
