Reviews & Opinions

STEVE SPINALI, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #15: JULY 1984: The P&TTB track, re-mixed from their second album, boasts some great production values and inventive guitar figures, but still seems a bit uninspired. On the other hand, I found the FITS track at least moderately appealing, with its catchy guitar riffing and melodies. Nothing special, though by no means offensive.

Additional Notes

The Testies song is a remixed version of the track from The Mating Sounds Of South American Frogs.
