Reviews & Opinions

PAT GILBERT, RECORD COLLECTOR, 1992: This enjoyable collection features tracks from every phase of this pop-punk band's lengthy career, which began (on vinyl at least) in 1979 with their Lunchtime With The Adicts EP. From the off, their emphasis was on cheery, chiming rock music (which is particularly evident on tracks like 'Viva La Revolution' and 'Joker In The Pack"), and more importantly, 'Fun'. Quite how the latter squared with their obsession with 'Clockwork Orange', though, I'm not sure.
