has launched a new e-card featuring the first single from their upcoming hits collection, Hit List. The new track "Shoulda Known Better." appears on the album which has been pushed back to January 2nd from the original December release date.

The album will be released via independent distributor Artist To Market Distribution (A2M) and compile 17 of the band's songs from across their career. The release will be priced low, with 9.99 suggested, as a result of the unique way that A2M operates.



They released in 2005 via Lava. by on Thursday, November 16, 2006 at 11:46 AM (EST)

they have actually had one or two decent sized hit songs off the last few albums. at least they have had a lot of songs that got a ton of radio play here in Detroit, i assume its close to the same in other areas of the country

    !! and do you hear that opening guitar riff?

    someone should tell them that korn stopped being cool like 5 or 6 years ago.

.. Elva wasnt too bad.

The last one was just horrible.

After Oz Factor, everything they've done has been progressively more generic. Now there is no difference between UL and bands like Fuel, and Eve 6.

you people are harsh. these guys have been rocking for years, scott russo has one of the best blues voices, and its way better than listening to operation ivy, sex pistols, or any other shit youre told makes you "punk". these guys know how to write melodies and riffs that none of those other guys could even dream of writing.

Blues? Are you fucking kidding? Scott Russo doesn't know jack shit about blues music.

He wishes he was Brad from Sublime.

A couple months ago I was listening to some online punk cast that was doing an interview with Steve Morris and I think in regards to "Shoulda Known Better" he said something to the effect of "oh yeah, this shit is by far without a doubt the best stuff we've ever written as a band..

.hands down". I just don't get it.

The lyrics aren't intelligent at all, and the music is the most generic shit on earth. Not that UL has ever been a band for showmanship of their musicality but man, if you think old school UL is bad, don't fucking listen to this.
Though I must admit, I'm curious to hear "C.

P.K." recorded on a good budget with good equipment and recording materials.

That's probably my favourite UL song of all time, and the Blue Room version will most likely always be my favourite, but that album sounds so shitty (in terms of sonic quality), I can't wait to hear the re-recorded two songs that were originally recorded horribly (the other being "Superman").
