Reviews & Opinions

RUTH SCHWARTZ, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #3, NOVEMBER 1982: You have to get beyond the tacky cover on this LP. It looks like an Oi or EXPLOITED album, but G.B.H. play one ripping headbanger after another. They even utilize blues riffs in thrashes like "Bellend Bop." Most of the lyrics are about war, poverty, and madness, but there's one song about getting drunk and fucking a "slut." Needless to say, that makes me wonder about these guys.

Additional Notes
