I've heard the occasional Operation Ivy song over the years, and I know their big draw is that Tim Armstrong was in the band. It's not TOO bad but ska is a big ask most of the time for me. I don't mind a bit of Rancid but I'm more of a Lars guy than Tim. And I was always overall more of a Pennywise guy anyway. This album is ok. Songs like Jaded and The Crowd are bang up my alley, exactly what I like in late 80s punk, but then Take Warning is close to the worst thing I've ever heard. haha. Also, I know this is some kind of compilation and their actual album isn't on Spotify, but fucking hell 50min of shoddy Bay Area punk... yeesh. 3/5.
