I really enjoy everything they recorded (with the exception of Dear You, which never did much for me), but 24 Hour is incredible the whole way through. I fell in love with this record in high school and it still remains in steady rotation.

The first song on Dear You is so good, I couldn't even care about the rest of the LP. Saw them live a few times by default (friends were going so I tagged along to talk to girls); live they never did anything for me, probably because I wasn't super familiar with whatever record they were touring on or maybe because at that time I compared every live band to SNFU live. I should revisit this LP, as I would probably really like it now. I can't believe it has been 20 years. I really liked the first Jets to Brazil LP.

Neither can match 24 Hour (or Bivouac) though...

Thanks for playing!

As for albums, Unfun is probably my favorite. When I was younger, I didn´t get Bivouac, now I think it´s great.
Dear You I liked more before, now I don´t have desire to listen to it.
24 Hour has some great songs and some that I´m not a fan of.

Finally! Someone who shares my thoughts on this band's output
