Crusades

This edition comes with an exclusive (and rocking!) bonus live video clip. The Plastic Constellations are a one of a kind - a punk band that rock like mothers! 'Crusades' is a rock record with more angles than an isosceles triangle! If the idea of a "poppier Fugazi" excites you, give this one a spin. And keep your fists high.! 'Crusades' is the new album from Minneapolis-based quartet, The Plastic Constellations. TPC are unique - they have been together for over a decade, yet still boast a lineup all in their early 20s. The age overlap gives TPC their edge, producing a sharp fist-in-the-air fusion of exuberant, anthemic punk pop and faux-stadium rock, matched with the incredible angular chops of seasoned pros. They have not missed a weekly rehearsal for over a decade! Oh, that's tight!  more

This album is incredible.

Too many influences to mention but these guys have a style all their own. This album is seriously incredible. The most recent band I can compare them to is Bear Vs Shark. Same kind of attitude. Same kind of balls to the wall, take no crap, kick everyone's ass, sort of vibe. "Ghost in the House"...

One of the best CD's I've ever put ear to.

No joke. This isn't one of those random week-long obsessions, either.The only problem with it that I can see is that it's too short. Only 10 tracks of awesomeness... leaves you hanging there. It's not one of those albums based on like 2 songs and a bunch of fillers, though. Nope. Part of what...
