Love this album. First heard Leaving Chicago on the 2003 Fearless Records sampler, after that this album has always been one of my favorites. The three voice part at the end of that song still gives me chills every time.

The best FOB hidden cameo, in my humble opinion, is Justin Pierre at the end of Chicago Is So Two Years Ago. That might be a cool Thursday list, best subtle guest vocals. |
I actually just listened to the CD straight through the other day, and amazingly remembered every word of every song.
Their star burnt out so young, lol. |
makes me think of Spitalfield.

always up for chicago pop punk nostalgia... especially with lots of these bands rising from the dead. just came across these guys on an old mix cd i found that actually still worked (highlight of my week, btw). i'd still listen to the shit out of this with the windows down.

I remember buying this cd used from the local record store for like $2 bucks. Got jupiter sunrise as well. Both solid albums. I have the cover art from the knockout cd as a poster in my room, love it.

Reminds me exactly of that period. The bass sounds exactly like on Rufio's "Perhaps, I suppose". Didn't they do a cover as well for that first punk goes pop cd? Damn that was a good one. With Rufio's : Like A Prayer and The Starting Line doing "I'm real". It's definitely nostalgic haha
Edit: and now I'm listening to Slick Shoes: Now's time. From that period as well. |
A friend in austin said they were scheduled to play there recently. I wonder if that happened, or if it was another band called knockout. I always wanted to see them live. I always thought the second spitalfield vocalist on remember right now sounded like the knockout dude. Guess it was him after all.

Makes me miss Larger Than Life...

How about their debut on Mr. Good Records "Driven to Distraction"?
Shameless self promotion..... www.mrgoodrecords.com |
