I agree the first album is a little better but Never Rest In Peace has some great tracks on it: Church & Rape is fucking classic as is Heaven w/ Degenerics. And Civilization Show w/citizen fish has that same crackrocksteady sound that made bands like LOC, Morning Glory, & Choking V stand out from the rest of the squatcore bands from that area. Its just my opinion but I thought it was one of the better albums of last year.

no offence to anyone that likes it, but I think this band fucking sucks, and Leftover Crack only had a few songs I could enjoy. Choking Victim is pretty fuckin' tight though, and No Cash, Morning Glory and INDK were rad too. I guess Stza is more into moving away from the skapunk sound and playing something more hardcore, which is cool, but Star Fucking Hipsters is just god awful to my ears... just my two cents.

I think that they are are completely kick ass band. Although i do love the hell out Morning glory, Indk, No cash, Choking v and loc alot more. I agree that they went downhill from first to second album but, IMO, it's still a decent album. I'd really love to know how they know/got ethan suplee to apear on the video for 3000 miles away....hmmmm...

P.s. Check out my own religion and Antimaniax if you're into the skacore. Not much on youtube but search around. ( soulseek )

3,000 miles, immigrants and hypocrites, and 2 cups of tea are the main ones i like. probably the more populat ones but the others aren't that great in my opinion.

they played here in Reno and though they played well, they just stood around and bitched about how much the west coast sucks and how NYC is where it's at. and stza talked about how getting a dick in your ass is amazing because it's like taking a huge dump, and that lasted for half an hour.
pretty......ehhh stuff.

i feel kinda cheesy saying this but you can read about it on my blog here: another excellent underachievement: Shooting 3,000 Miles Away
or you can read about it from Sturgeon here: Altsounds.com News | SFH (Star Fucking Hipsters) Premiere Video for "3000 Miles Away" Starring Ethan Suple

The first album was great. Second not so much. Interested in the third, apparently, titled "Ska Fucking Histers." Stza is becoming more and more of a disappointment as time goes on. Not really a fan of a musician who'll kick people in the heads for trying to climb onstage. Glad that a member of Cap A Capo punched him in the face.

When it comes to the "skacore/crack rock steady" sound there are a lot better bands out there than SFH.

CV is by far the best thing Stza has ever done. I find it near impossible to take any LoC stuff seriously, though it is certainly fun to listen to. I think that is why I enjoy Star Fucking Hipsters, because it is just fun music without as much omgxxcrustyasfukxx pretension. Personally the only reason I ever listen to Leftover Crack is because it is catchy. If I wanted to listen to something "hardcore" or "crusty" I wouldn't be listening to LoC. SFH is poppy and entertaining and nothing more. I think Stza is best suited to playing that kind of music.

pending.
i dig this band a lot. i've had the pleasure of hanging out with them several times and even got to ride around with 'em in the van for a spell. nico is a sweetheart and always has great bud. meeting frank (from degenerics) was like meeting a childhood hero. im not easily star-struck (or star-fucked? okay, lame joke) but i've owned their Generica since i was 12 years old. i dont draw a lot of comparisons between them and leftover crack. they weren't intended to be part of the Crack-Rocksteady 7 project and I don't think they deserve to be. if placed in a Choking Victim context, they might fall short, but as a stand-alone band, i think they're incredible.

ps: dear sturgeon. i've smoked you down enough over the past two years. if you steal my whiskey ONE MORE FUCKING TIME, we're having words. for serious. i'm sick and tired of it.
