If you have never heard RFTC it might take a few listens to get into their sound, but this is an excellent place to start.

RFTC comes through with their best release on Vagrant to date. The songs are tight in that RFTC "punk rock meets old R&B bluesy" formula. "I'm Not Invisible" is a personal favorite in the usual RFTC style, featuring rumbling bass lines, a sing along chorus and a really nice ending. Other highlights include the more poppy "Too Many Balls", the rocking "I Wanna Know", and the angry groove of "Bucket of Piss."

That said, RFTC is not for the faint of heart. It is a band that can be an acquired taste. This album edges over group sounds and stands up there with "Scream Dracula, Scream". A good introduction for first time listeners.

Some are born to sweet delight, some are born to endless night.
Both will find something here. Yes, it may take 100 listenings, but, eventually it will dawn on you. 'Too Many Balls' can be played 50 times in a row and it will never lose its power.
No Group Sounds, but good enough.

5 out of 5 stars Yet Another Great RFTC album........2003-03-20

The only complaint is using the word "Live" as part of their album's name. It confuses those overly sensative woodbe rock critics.
This album rips from beginning to end, which is probably why there are complaints about the album length. Anyway, RFTC definitely keeps you wanting more. If you want a pure rockin' album minus al the fluff of todays music PICK this one up.

4 out of 5 stars Good Record.......2002-12-06

First of all, for those of you taking the liner notes so seriously. Did you ever think that maybe they were written "tounge in Cheek".
Every RFTC record has been different so it is very tough to compare one to another. I feel that this record is good, but I do agree with some of the other reviews that it seems short and maybe a bit rushed. I also can see an influence from the Sultans. I happen to think that is a good thing. I like the way the record flows and sounds. I think that Speedos voice sound excellent on this recording as well as the horn section.
I hope this record does well.

5 out of 5 stars Rockets' best yet.......2002-11-28

The most prominent thing about Camp X- Ray is the fact that there is no filler-none whatsoever. Almost every other Rocket album has that one or more songs that are simply skipped, but not here. One thing people have to realize is that no one band can release album after album that sound exactly the same (to those so fond of saying 'oh its no State of Art, but...') RFTC have outdone themselves yet again.
