Reviews & Opinions
JEFF BALE, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #7, JULY/AUGUST 1983: Like their cool debut EP, J.F.A.'s album is chock full of super enjoyable thrash tunes. Their songs, whether high-speed blasts or the occasional surf-style instrumental like "Baja," are perfect for hot fun in the sun--skateboarding, surfing, drag racing and, of course, slamming and skanking. The main improvement here lies in the area of production--the guitar has more edge this time around. Even though they're from Arizona, J.F.A . are the California beach band of the 80s.Additional Notes
Reissued in the UK in 1987 by Fundamental (SAVE 23). Released on CD as part of We Know You Suck.
