I would like to recommend an album

[Mojambo]

For those people who loved the political message of Green Day's American Idiot, but hate the rather ordinary pop musicianship that ultimately weighs that album down.

The Thermals - Fuckin A

This is a very appropriately titled record, because after having heard it your most likely response is "Fuckin A!!! This is great"

Here is a good review from AMG.

My favorite songs are God and Country, Let your Earth Quake Baby, and Keep Time.

Check it out.
