When you consider that the first ep was made by four guys who literally were not old enough to drive, it is rather sophisticated and impressive. It’s bad and some of the lyrics are pretty embarrassing but those songs were written by actual fourteen year olds who committed them to tape at 15. Had they made a straight punk record with shit playing people would probably think it’s great now but the EP is ambitious and while it falls flat, that ambition in the hands of a bunch of 15 year olds is to be commended. Sloan picked them up for Murder on the strength of that thing!Ramahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08196446749603520797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776777782419637264.post-14378697751567113482020-07-27T20:26:28.146-07:002020-07-27T20:26:28.146-07:00A strange band seemingly throwing in all their chi...A strange band seemingly throwing in all their chips on a bet that 70s production with 70s decade tinges (including disco) was going to make a big comeback at the turn of the millennium. They would have been well ahead of the curve if it did, ..... They really do commit to it though.<br />I wonder what this would sound like with a different production style?Failsafehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03721275911533140042noreply@blogger.com
