OK, does this record really need a review? I mean, it’s on Fat Wreck Chords. The band is from Minneapolis. It’s pop/punk. You should know from just those facts whether you will love this or you will be bored to death by it all. As you can probably guess if you have followed SAL, Banner Pilot is right up our alley. And if you thought the band was doing some good things on their last album, Resignation Day, well, Collapser just takes it to a completely different level. It’s nice to see Fat signing some good bands for a change (see Teenage Bottlerocket). Fans of Dillinger Four and The Lawrence Arms you may have just found your new favorite band.
