The Pietasters - The Pietasters
(a.k.a. Piestomp)

The first release from one of DC's most sucessful ska bands. This CD has a great blend of music that stems straight from the souls of the Pietasters. From mellow jazzy sounds such as the instrumental 'Pietaster' that are great for when you're sitting around getting your ska-goove on to punkish tracks such 'Perfect World' and 'Dollar Bill' that are great for powering the mosh pits at the 9:30 club. The other songs on this CD fall somewhere between these two ends of the spectrum leaving you the listener with one great album. There are many very good songs included in this recording and none that are sub par or will leave the listener wondering how thay got on the CD. If you get the chance, give it a listen. Rating: 9
