Rated 9/10

Proto-Garage Rock with punk elements

I've seen and heard about this record on a message board years ago somewhere in the internet ether, and remember it being talked about highly by someone who's opinion I held in regard. So perusing my library's music selection I find this sitting innocuously on the shelf, and I snag it.

What a listen! I had little to go off when starting to play this record, and I was quite pleasantly surprised. Now I hear people praise this and cite this as an early foray into punk music, and I can see how that might be the case, but this band isn't really a punk group at the end of the day. The tracks are mainly garage-rock with a melodic twist. The album is punchy as hell though, with plenty of tasty guitar leads and exquisite rhythm sections. The songs are as infectious as they are savage as well. A relatively short listen, but one that enthralls me every time I put it on.

I feel comfortable giving this a solid 9/10, for fans of rock and it's many forms, this record is a must.
