Ok, I luv Propagandhi, but this album just doesn't do it.  Granted I like their newer stuff much better, but HTCE was till a decent album.  This is the same basic style, but more controlled.  Lyrically, I dislike John John's contributions, thinking that they're not very good, boring, mundane, etc. etc.  Overall, not very good Progressive Thrash.  (He has done great stuff with The Weakerthans though.)  Propagandhi put out their weakest tracks of their career on this album, and it's a good thing that TETA came out later; Otherwise, they would have gone the way of Lagwagon.  So, if you like NOFX, you'll probably like this album.  If you liked "How To Clean Everything," you'll probably like this album.  If you liked "Today's Empire, Tomorrow's Ashes," Stear clear.
