WHY YOU SHOULD BE FAR MORE CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT NANCY PELOSI IS DOING THAN WHAT HER LYING SKUMFUK MEDIA TRIES TO SAY ABOUT TRUMP

Because she uses you and I as suckers as she robs all of us blind through insider trading. You're a fucking total retard if you're not pointing more fingers at her as her lying skumfuk media tries to deflect blame towards Trump. Trump literally wants to send all of us $2,000 refunds from tarifs, and wants to eliminate income tax so you and I have more of our own hard earned money in our pockets. While this geratric sour melted vagina-neck of a so-called "woman" funnels all of our resources to herself through insider trading fraud. If you hate Trump but you never even though twice about Pelosi, congratulations, you are a gullible moron.  You do realize information has been released proving she orcestrated the entire January 6th FED-SURRECTION and you fell for it hook-line-and-sinker because you're either a complete fucking brainless dolt, or are wilfully ignorant because the leftwing media broke your brain with anti-Trump propaganda.

Album Review: Poison Arrows by Communique


Album: Poison Arrows
Artist: Communique
Release Date: May 18, 2004

Website/Social Media: Bandcamp, Facebook

Sounds Like: 80s New Wave & Indie Rock

Similar Artists: Matt Skiba & The Sekrets, We Are Scientists, Gerard Way (solo), Ozma, Alkaline Trio, The Network
Review: How has this band eluded my ears for over 10 years? Communique released 3 albums on Lookout! records in the mid 2000's but it took until just a few days ago for their 2004 full-length album Poison Arrows to fall into my hands.

The band's sound is a blending of 80s new-wave & indie rock / punk. Similar to that of  We Are Scientists, Matt Skiba & The Sekrets, or Gerard Way (of My Chemical Romance). "Ouija Me" is a fun-but-morbid love song that would easily fit right next to Alkaline Trio on a pop-punk/horror compilation. While the album is definitely a solid listen as a whole, there are a few songs that really stand out including "Black Curses" and "Perfect Weapon."


Communique was actually formed by the members of another Lookout! Records punk band named American Steel who thought that the new-wave sound wouldn't be a good fit under their former name. It is also interesting to note that former Lookout! Records and Bay Area artists Green Day also experimented with a new-wave side project (The Network) around this same time with both bands releasing debut albums in 2003. Was one band inspired by the other or was it all just a coincidence? I'm definitely not pointing any fingers because the fact that both exist are good things in my opinion.

Our Score: 8.5/10 - A solid album from start to finish with a few solid singles for pop-punk fans who maybe aren't as big on the new-wave sound.
