Summary: The best 'Boot
Comment: Of the Give 'Em The Boot albums this is simply the best and certainly one of the best punk samplers ever. It is a great mix of crusty punk and ska. It showcases the best bands that Epitaph has to offer. This is a must have for any punk or ska fan.

Summary: THE BEST SKA/PUNK SAMPLER OUT THERE (vol. 2)
Comment: OK, no one's done a track-by-track review yet, so here goes:1. Intro- Just a couple seconds of snarling cats. Yeah. -/10
2. Gang's All Here- Anthemic, enjoyable drinking song: what else do you expect from DKM? 9/10
3. Riding the Region- Also known as 'The Region' off Push 'n Shove. Great trad-ska song that'll be stuck in your head for days. 10/10
4. If the Kids Are United- There's been a lot of complaining about this Sham 69 cover, but I think it's just as good as the original. Anthemic, but really bad lyrics. 9/10
5. Nocturnal- Not a huge fan of psychobilly. At least the country influence is muted here. Pretty good song. 8/10
6. Can't Stand It- As another reviewer said, the dancehall/dub thing isn't their best. Check out their earlier stuff. 8/10
7. Tell Me What You're Feeling- Dancehall artist Mad Lion teams up with Rancid. The result: not too good. 6/10
8. Goin' Out- Decent shout-along song. Don't like this band much. 7/10
9. Bad Gadjit- I LOVE THIS BAND! Their blend of ska, blues, 1950s rock n roll is amazing. 10/10
10. LA Girl- Pretty good song, but her voice is grating. 8/10
11. X-Ray Style- Not gonna rate this one. Too unique. World music influences shine on this mellow song. RIP Joe Strummer.
12. Misty Days- Reggae legend Banton and Rancid: should've been better. 6/10
13. The Fool- Solid trad-ska from Slackers side project. Hepcat's Greg Lee sings. 9/10
14. Bruk Out- The best dancehall/Rancid collaboration. A lot of people disagree, but I love it. 9/10
15. Have the Time- Anything by the Slackers is outstanding. 10/10
16. Crack Rock Steady- YESSSS! From the streets of New York comes that crack rocksteady beat. Funny song (just don't take it seriously). Best from CV (too bad they broke up). 10/10
17. Forget Yourself- Forget this track. Forget this band. 5/10
18. Crack City Rockers- Choking Victim with a new drummer and new name. Still keepin that crack rockstaedy beat. 9/10
19. Fools Gold- Solid. Great band, but sometimes sound like Clash wannabes. 9.5/10
20. Rent for Sale- By INDK. Skwert and Ezra of CV's new band. Check em out. 8.5/10
21. Flight of the Phoenicians- Take the vocals and horns out of Hepcat's sound and you get Vanity 5. Good instrumental, but sounds a little weak. 9.5/10
22. Life Won't Wait- Excellent ska song. Great way to close the album. Buju Banton guests. "The vision is the new world order..." 10/10
I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to find some good ska and punk. However, I would've liked tracks from Pressure Point (a great oi band on vol. 1) and SOMETHING from King Django. BUY IT NOW!

Summary: The Perfect Mix
Comment: This is my favorite out of the Give Em the Boot series. I think it's the perfect mix of punk and ska, and the track selections were excellent. It's one of my favorite compilations to listen to on the road. There isn't a song on it that a generally skip, which says a lot for a compilation cd. There is great variety, but every song is good.

Summary: Not Bad-And Not Good Either!
Comment: This comp in neither good nor bad.It starts off great but kinda slowed down in the middle and it gets great back at the end of the tracks.Great songs from Dropkick Murphys,Hepcat,Choking Victim and The Slackers.If you own any song from these band,then don't buy it-but if you don't,you can purchase it and listen it once it a while.

Summary: one of the best punk rock compilations around
Comment: Of the three give em the boot cd's, this one is the best. Almost every song is good, and with the variety of styles, such as punk, reggae, and ska, it makes a good party cd. A step above the first Give em the boot cd, and way better than give em the boot 3....a must have for any punk fan.....a classic compilation album!
