Veterans of Disorder is a studio album by the American band Royal Trux.[1] It was released in 1999 by Drag City.[2]

Critical reception

The Washington Post wrote that the album "starts with straightforward rockers like the ones the band recorded for its two Virgin albums ... But after the Latin-influenced '!Yo Se!', the music veers in the looser, jazzier direction of the band's earlier work."[3] NME named it the 27th best album of 1999.[4]

Record Collector called Veterans of Disorder "by no means a classic album but, as a statement against conformity, convention and expectation, it still packs a powerful punch."[5]
