| Every song is incredible. The album is very diverse. Well written, at times very significant. Catchy, hardcore, ska, string instruments, screaming, radical political views. I can't put into words how incredible this album is.
Feed The Children, One Dead Cop and Life Is Pain are the best three.
The only thing slightly wrong is that Rock the 40 oz. was better originally. |

| I have been trying to describe how amazing this album is in words for a while now and it really does not work out to well. So instead I will just tell you that if you don’t own this in your collection you might be doomed to the chambers of hell. You so do not want that to happen do you? Stop reading my ramble and pick this up for it’s death defying guitar riffs and some of the deepest lyrics I have ever heard. Do it! |

| this cd is alright. mediocre generica was better though. but this isnt totally shit either. every song is good. the problem i had was that most of the songs are based on killing cops and all that. which is cool and all but i like variety in the lyrics. and thats why i gave it a 4. but musically this cd kicks ass. so if you just getting into leftover crack then i suggest Mediocre Generica. BEWARE THE WRATH OF THE VICTIM!
best songs are "Clear Channel (Fuck Off)", "Rock The 40 Oz.", "Operation M.O.V.E.", "Burn Them Prisons", and "Life Is Pain" |

| It's an excellent release. If you've never heard of them before..which is hard to believe...i suggest buying Mediocre Generica first. This cd had a much greater amount of production and it is more different than it is better or worse compared to the earlier albums. In the end it's Leftover Crack so it really dosn't matter if you prefer their old stuff...Just buy it! |

| I was looking at the Alternative Tentacles website one summer night and I came across this little number. I had never perviously heard of Leftover Crack or the Crack Rock Steady Beat, but I thought "Wow, 'Fuck World Trade'? That's pretty bold and they're ska-punk like Op Ivy!?" so I decided to check 'em out. I downloaded the MP3 for Gang Control, and holy shit, that song was like a nose full of cheap coke for me, I was instantly addicted. Gang Control is still my favorite song, it is just so good. I downloaded the other two songs on the AT website, ordered this CD from InterPunk and just listened to those three songs nonstop for the week or two it took for my order to arrive.
Its kind of hard to explain that Crack Rock Steady Beat. One of my friends once said that they sounded like a happy Sex Pistols or a really fucking pissed off Rancid. Its ska, so it has those cool backbeats that you could probably dance to but the vocals are so damn raw. And don't take their political message too seriously, kids. They might make some good points about America or whatever, but obviously, any one who really wants to shut down all the prisons in America is an idiot. Anywhoo, after listening to this CD, I'm hooked on the Crack Rock Steady Beat (though I now prefer Choking Victim over LOC). My favorite songs are Gringos Son Puercos Feos, Super Tuesday, Ya Can't Go Home and of course, Gang Control. |

| Not quite as good as Mediocre Generica and definately not as good as No Gods/No Managers, but it still has some great songs. It has the best lyrics of any version of Gang Control and Burn them Prisons, Clear Channel, and Life is Pain are all stand-out tracks. |

| O.K., Leftover Crack was really cool when I was an angry young teenager rebeling against society for no particular reason, but these days they just suck. I like how they used to blend hardcore and ska, but this album really doesnt do that to much. It's basically just hardcore, which sucks. I liked songs like gay rude boys unite and crack rock steady, but theres nothing like that one here which blows. while I agree with alot of the things they have to say, it just aint worth listening to with stza's horrible vocals, mutha fucker gives me a headache. you could stand in a constuction zone for an hour and listen to power saws and get less of a headache. If your an angry little cry baby whos upset cause he can't get a date to the prom, this is for you, but if your cool you should get some big d or planet smashers. |

| And absolutely solid release. It sounds a bit more polished then Mediocre Generica, but includes more of the same pissed off, anti-police lyrics. ALOT less ambient piano noise on this release, although I still like Mediocre Generica better. The songs just don't seem as raw, catchy or aggressive on Fuck World Trade with a few exceptions. |
