The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - More Noise and Other Disturbances

ska to the mother f'n core

I don't care what category one may wish to apply to the Bosstones, this album is just great music! Every song is great, the best Bosstones album in my opinion. If you buy only one Bosstones album make it this one or maybe "Live From the Middle East". August 31, 2008

Wicked Pissa

Let's keep this one short and sweet. More Noise and Other Disturbances is probably the most solid Ska-Core album to date. Gritty, Raw, Melodic, this album will rock your socks off. May 13, 2008

Bosstones + Live Show = Perfection

I feel so old writing this review - and feel SO sorry for anyone that didn't get the chance to catch these guys live back in the 90s. Simply put, best damn live show you will ever see (next to the Supersuckers). "More Noises" is by far the best the Bosstones have to offer.

..and Dicky and the boys, if you are reading this: PLEASE get back together for a small venue reunion tour. I'll drink to that!!!! November 8, 2007

ska-rific

This has become my favorite Bosstones album, bumping 'Let's Face It' to a very close second. 'I'll Drink To That' is probably my favorite Bosstones song. In fact, the first seven tracks on this album are fantastic, with the only slowdown occuring at the start of 'Guns And The Young'. It almost seems awkward to have the Bosstones delivering a serious message. Aren't these guys just about partying and ripping through their unique blend of ska-punk-rock? Nevertheless, a very excellent outing and definitely the first album I would recommend for purchase to anyone getting into the Bosstones. August 20, 2005

One of the best small venue bands EVER!!!

I have been listening to the Bosstones for about 13 years maybe 12. I have seen them live countless times. From large venue (Horde tour, Warp Tour) type festivals to club shows. If they ever play a club near you jump at the chance to go. Don't skip to see them on a large stage, just don't get all hyped up it will be a let down. Nothing to do with the Band they sound great, just not the same type of atmosphere as the club gigs.

The last time I saw them was I believe 2000 or 2001 at the 9:30 Club in D.C. (great venue by the way) One of the best - not quite as good as when they were younger but still one the best shows ever for that size of a club.

More Noise and Other Disturbances is a good album, but Live from the Middle East really captures the energy and feel of a live Bosstone show. I really have a hard time listening to their studio albums. On a one to five rating More Noise and Other Disturbances gets a 5, while Live from the Middle East would get an 8 on the same rating scale. Absolutley the best, off the chart.
