Despite the title and their intention to make this their last release, they had two more live albums coming after this. 13 punk songs in the best Ramones tradition, simple, catchy and straight; with the end in sight there was no more need to “develop” or “expand” their sound - it's just the good old Ramones punk they had been doing for more than 20 years. Good, solid music, and that their music now sounds a lot like that of their early 90s disciples is probably just the irony of (punk) history. [8]

Trotz der Abschieds-Ankündigung und trotz des Titels erst die vorletzte LP. Es wird deutlich, dass sie so kurz vor dem Ende niemandem mehr etwas beweisen mussten, daher auch keinerlei Experimente oder Ausflüge in andere Genres - 13mal Punkrock in schönster Ramones-Tradition, einfach, eingängig und immer geradeaus. Seit vielen, vielen Jahren das gelungenste Album dieser Band.
