Reviewed 2004-03-02
Hard-core punk with distorted vocals and songs lasting more than 30 seconds. Only a punk band would be able to fit 6 tracks onto a 7 ” says me.
These guys are from the Bay Area and I must say they are really pissed off. At times I wish I knew what they were saying, but then again, if we did, then we wouldn't be able to play this on the air. The jacket has something resembling lyrics scribbled onto it, which mimics the music and vocals.
the good: good, hard-core punk
the bad: unintelligible vocals? nah, that's not bad...it's PUNK
the ugly: all tracks blend into one another
potty-mouth tracks: all, I think...you can't tell anyway, vocals are distorted


(note: rating numbers are out of 10 and following each track description)
Side A:
1.I Wanna be Blind: punk w/ distorted vocals (7) 2.Satan's Call: punk w/ distorted vocals; funny sample on the outro (9) 3.Hate Delerium Fucks my Brain: faster punk w/ distorted vocals; AVOID...you can make out “shit” being screamed over and over.
Side B:
1.Do My Worst: on the jacket it says the lyrics were “too evil to be written”; still more punk (7) 2.You Better Shut Up: a definite song for the ladies (7) 3.Cocaine's Snikers: funny sample on the intro (8)
