No Vacation From The World

Israel is likely the last place one would look for pop-punk exports. But when the punk rock dust settles, quality always shines through. So when Useless I.D. earned a spot on the entire 2002 Warped Tour, the choice between that and a summer spent in their war-torn homeland was a no-brainer. Heavily influenced by So-Cal pop-punk, Useless I.D.'s second Kung Fu album 'No Vacation from the World' shows the band's willingness to try some new things (occasional moog keyboards, moodier melodies, brighter harmonies) while not forgetting it's deeply-planted punk roots. While traveling on Warped, the band collaborated with No Use for a Name front man Tony Sly on their new songs, with Sly even contributing a full number for this album. Lagwagon's Joey Cape was also brought in for some studio vocals.
