Reviews & Opinions
STEVE SPINALI, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #10, DECEMBER 1983: Have the EXPLOITED finally joined the "human rights" punk movement? Who can say for sure, but their first EP on the Pax label contains a sharp anti-Bushell tirade ('Singalongabushell'), plus two surprisingly strong anti-war compositions, 'Army Style' and the title track. The latter are especially fast and thrashy.Additional Notes
'Rival Leaders' and 'Singalongabushell' ended up in different version on Let's Start A War... Said Maggie One Day: the former in a remixed version, the latter with a completely different set of lyrics as 'Wankers'.
