My last year of West Kings a friend of mine wanted a lend of some Ramones tapes and lent me this cd...totally blown away by this awesome collection of tunes that were so short, so angry..esp songs like Jean is Dead and I'm Not a Loser, songs that showed total teenage angst and this album was in 1982! a total of some nine years before the grunge movement in North America...it should have been the Descendents getting the recognition, because i personally found their albums more nasty, straight to the point (but probably not as radio friendly) When they reunited in 1995, i smiled lots...now the kids can hear some real punk rock.
