    I love Face To Face, and I know this isn't their first live album but... I can't help but feel a little disappointed with that track listing. I was anticipating more than 12 tracks on this. Feels slightly underwhelming as far as song selection goes (especially compared to the other Live In A Dive albums).

    I’ll def check this out. I still listen to their acoustic album all the time. It’s great

    Not happy that it’s only 12 songs, however, am very happy with the track listing. Some good old rarities on the list

    12 tracks does seem short, but it’s cool to have a second live record, and I’m glad there’s not a bunch of Live album repeat selections.

    Was hoping Blind was on this...

    Blind was already on Live. Just curious why you want another live version of Blind instead of other songs.

    For me, I prefer live records that feel like a full-on show from start-to-finish...The Fat press release says the band "selected highlights" from the three nights they played St. Vitus back in the winter. So I guess that's not really the intention here. But still...

    Would have preferred have a longer track list (even if it topped out at 17-18 tracks) with some additional stuff that's a bit more in the "greatest hits" vein, whether they were repeats from the earlier live record or not. Just so it feels more "rounded out."

    I’ve seen them live a bunch of times, so I guess for me I’d rather just have a variety of different songs from different albums than a show front to back. Also, they have best of record already. I don’t know why it got capped at 12.

    I will say, it’s nice Fat Wreck has given them a home to release an album, acoustic album and live album all within a few years.

    That's the truth. With the going rate for international shipping and current exchange rate, I've had to become pretty picky about what vinyl I pre-order from the States.

    IIB is the outside the box record bands have been trying to make for years.
