For Dischord's 20th Anniversary, No Kill No Beep Beep serves as suitable a summation as the label's upcoming box set. Beeping guitars flutter, thrash and crash like wuxia. Drummer John Davis leads the listener through the herky-jerky chaos like an acrobatic fullback. At times, the rhythms and changes rumbling from his kit hog too much spotlight, and songwriting takes a backseat to cluttered post-hardcore aerobics. Q and Not U pummel through their disc in piecemeal haste. Zeal may outmeasure experience and uniqueness, but blaming . A scene which constantly cannibalizes and cross-inspires, . looks to produce some slight new variations yet. No Kill No Beep Beep comes with all the frustrations and thrills of a debut. I'm just waiting for them to put the "new" in "new wave.

Their 2000 post-hardcore debut No Kill No Beep Beep is as slanted and code-talking as its title. The album enlightens, but certainly in a lyrically avant-garde way with cryptic one-liners and fragmented imagery. Deciphering listeners require dictionaries ( No cognoscenti, can stab critique in the back for making me cognizant ) and imaginations ( Tired of waking up with a new haircut every morning, so it’s no scissors in bed ). Much of the lyrics seem to vent the frustrations of the young and urban, albeit in abstracts. Fever Sleeves is perhaps the most melodic track here, however, as the guitars offer less resistance to the tuneful rise and fall of the action.
