Thirteen Day Getaway is the second and final studio album by the punk rock band CIV.[8][9] It was released on April 7, 1998, on Atlantic Records. The album is dedicated to Raybeez.

Critical reception[edit]

The Plain Dealer wrote that "Civ's clean, moderately paced, somewhat melodic pop punk, topped by Anthony Civorelli's monotonous, nasal vocals, makes the group sound like hundreds of other post-Green Day pop punk bands."[10] The San Diego Union-Tribune called the album "top-loaded with songs that suggest CIV knows how to spike pop hooks with a punk charge, to use melody rather than refuse it."[11]
