 Pick this up November 26, 2007
Timothy May
Mix Anti-Flag type punk with electronica and dance beats, still reading, good. While this may not appeal to everyone, with their debut Intro5pect do not necessarily break new ground, but instead refine what is normally passed over as combining the worst elements of two genres to create a cohesive CD that is greater than the sum of its parts. From the first track, Rights, it is evident that the sing along, anarchistic vocals can be melded flawlessly into a raging electronic beat that transports you to an eastern european dance club. Instead of the vocals being trite sloganeering, a common attack on political punk as a genre, both verse and chorus are carefully constructed, well measured, and infectiously rhythmic. Perhaps the greatest asset Intro5pect has is that it's songs will not grow dated. I love Anti-Flag, and any fan of the band should pick this CD up (Justin produced the CD and does backing vocals, and even a lead verse or two), but their lyrics, while highly relevant to the times, often become dated as politics change and presidents leave office. Intro5pect instead rails against capitalism, corporate greed, and the American consumer mentality, things that, unfortunately show no signs of ceasing. Pick this CD up, it may not change the US, but it may just change punk, at least a little bit.
 Electro-punk in the purest sense June 4, 2005
John Skunk (Wisconsin, USA)
This album is really interesting. Political street punk combined with electronic drums and synths. It's a very diverse album ranging from straight electronic songs to regular punk (except with breakbeats). I've been a fan of Punk, Electo, EBM, and Industrial for a long time and this album blends them all perfectly. Other bands have tried, but Intro5pect can actually pull it off. I highly reccommend this if you like any of the above mentioned genres or are just looking for something new in punk rock without straying far from the genre.
Best CD of the year, hands down/A must for Anti-Flag fans April 18, 2004

Just buy it, you won't be disappointed. Catchy, hard political punk (features Justin Sane, who also co-produced it, on several tracks) with some really cool electronic sounds thrown in. Fits in nicely with Anti-Flag, The Clash, Citizen Fish, etc. This CD is a masterpiece, I kid you not. I hate weak, sterile and clichéd music. This is the real thing. Every song rocks, great lyrics and you can't get tired of listening to it.
