Reviews & Opinions

TIM YOHANNAN, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #21, JANUARY 1985: I'd say they were the heirs to the early COCKNEY REJECTS and other "working class" "football chant" UK bands, but this band actually pre-dates most of them. I don't know how long they disappeared, but their return is most welcome, especially on this disc. All the tracks are catchy, exuberant, and powerful. A good one.

Additional Notes

This was also reissued as a series of 7" inch singles (here, here and here).
