Solid debut.......2006-06-14

I hadn't heard this record since about '96 other than the 2 Revelation Records singles that I still occasionally spin, but the upcoming Gorilla Biscuits reunion made me pull this one out again. I'm suprised at how fresh this sounds still, and is almost like what GB would have sounded like had they made a second LP. This record was completely written by Walter Schriefels (GB, Youth of Today, Quicksand etc) and the band was his concept, although he's not credited and was not an "official" member. So, this is basically a Walter record, and a good one at that. It seems like yesterday that I was singing along to these guys at Warped tour '95! 3.5 stars

CIV Set your goals.......2005-08-24

Loved it when it first came out. Great to hear it again on the Nissan commercial. Civ you are a real guy and i like that.
Always a fan. Dawn

Classicaly influenced NYHC.......2000-09-17

great CD. lots of one word gang vocals and break downs. theres a song written by luke of warzone, too. When they were together they were afiliated with H20 as well as the rest of the NY hardcore scene. the other album is less hardcore, and more commercial sounding, this is the one to get.

set your goals.......1999-12-29

this is one of my favorite cd's ever! all you complainers out their...civ is not gorilla buiscut, deal with it. set your goals is an upbeat insparational plesure to listen and dance to. i never get sick of it, i can have it in the cd player for weeks because every song has a different style. it instantlly makes me feel good when i listen to it.

Great Tunes!.......2007-07-18

This album is great. It's POP Punk, but its fun to listen to and makes you wanna have a good day. In light of all the emo crap thats out there, this album is the counter to emo. Its happy, well done, and enjoyable.

A sad, sad departure for CIV.......2003-12-17

Thirteen Day Vaction is complete JUNK. It is the worst possible kind of pop-punk. Sappy, ridiculous lyrics with a bland and over-produced sound. This album is no different than anything Good Charlotte has put out. There is no edge or grit present at any level.

It is mind boggling to me that this could be the same band that put out Set Your Goals. It's more than apparent that CIV was shooting for mainstream acceptance, but why fall so far from the tree? Couldn't there have been some sort of middle ground? Songs like "Big Girl" and "Secondhand Superstar" are gag worthy! But really, those two songs alone can't sum up the overall wretched vibe Thirteen Day Vacation gives.

It's really sad that a band with so much potential had to go out with a sissy-rock album like this.

The album that killed a legendary punk rawk band........2001-07-09

....

... disappointment I felt ...[about] "Thirteen Day Getaway" by Civ. .... Civ's first record "Set Your Goals" was an amazing piece of punk rock. It was a big departure from the Gorilla Biscuits sound (which some fans were ok with, and others were not) and ended up going on to sell 1 million copies in the U.S. with the help of the single "Can't Wait One Minute More" featuring Lou from Sick of it All and a MTV video featuring a bevy of New York Hardcore legends.

Atlantic based on this success felt that the band might be ready to take Civ to "the next level" and suggested the band might want to broaden their sound to sell more records. The idea was tossed around the band, and then finally agreed upon. In my opinion the new sound is [not good] ... It can be described as this sort of 60's rock/punk rock hybrid that misfires again and again, complete with hoakey lyrics and moog organs.

"Haven't Been Myself in Awhile" and "Itchycoo Park" are particularily grating ... What happened to the band I love?!!" Civ finally gets back to old form with "Owners Manual", but by then the damage has been done and you really don't care anymore. The song "Little Men" written by Walter of Quicksand is the only other decent moment on this CD.

In the end Civ gambled. He gambled that the bands new sound (and apperance at the MTV Beach House in '98) would earn the band enough new fans to not have to worry about alienating the old ones. Unfortunetly Civ was wrong and rolled snake eyes with his big fuzzy dice from the "Set Your Goals" album cover instead of 7 or 11. Civ has since broken up ... and Civ now runs a tattoo palor in New York City probably thinking about what he would do differently if he could do it again. They have simply become an Atlantic write off. ....

....Hopefully Civ will come back to the stage again soon and leave this travesty of a record where it belongs, the past.

TRENDY? AS TRENDY AS THEY GO, MY FRIENDS.......2000-02-11
