Reviews & Opinions
PUNKY GIBBON: Three fun punk tracks (The Influence, the super-snotty Sub Active and Total Chaos); the rest is: scratchy guitar-driven post-punk (Judy Nylon, The Stills, Controls, Dig Dig Dig, English Subtitles, Dogma Cats), gloomy synth-driven post-punk (The Sleepers, Attrition, The Lines, Questions, Tiny Holes), bouncy synth-driven post-punk/pop (Between Pictures, Electrablips), fucking horrible art-synth weirdo shit (Laurence/Shorthouse, Customer Service) and spoken-word bollocks (Sonderkommando).Additional Notes
Sixty-minute tape with information booklet. I'm pretty certain the images were sent by a member of the Controls (in which case, thank you), but if they're downloads from some web site, I apologise (write to me and I'll give proper credit).
