Star Fucking Hipsters is a bunch of friends from Choking Victim, Leftover Crack and the Slackers getting together to crank out that crack rock steady beat. Whether you’re into poppunk, hard-as-nails punkrock or bouncy ska… it’s all here on “Until We’re Dead”. It’s also highly melodic, catchy as hell and the addition of lots of keyboards and the male/female vocals help add to the diversity.

Sounds pretty good, right? Well, it is. Except for the inane lyrics. If I was still in high school I’d be all over the lyrics, picking out the cool sloganesque leftists oneliners to write on my book covers. But I’m not which is why I think the lyrics to “9/11 Was (An Inside Joke)” and “Zombie Christ” are pretty dumb.

But anyway, if you focus on the music rather than the lyrics, you won’t be disappointed.

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
