Good american punk and garage rock album from 1977. An album with song titles like "Ain't Nothin' to Do" and "Caught With the Meat In Your Mouth." You know what you'll get and won't be disappointed.

Some 70s east coast punk rock that had some good musical skills on display. I liked it well enough and it seemed to be a good representative of the time, place and genre.

No prizes for guessing this is early punk. I'll try and keep an open mind. Ok I've heard sonic reducer before. Probably been covered by another band? Album overall is exactly as expected. Childish lyrics, bad playing, shit production, etc. These kinds of albums survive on vibe alone in 2025. And this vibe means pretty much nothing to me. Still, guess I now know exactly where Tim and Lars got half their shtick. 3/5.

This may have seemed groundbreaking at the time, but now it sounds like another rote album of man yelling about things with fast guitar.
