Reviews & Opinions

PUNKY GIBBON: More forcefully produced than the first LP, this clear vinyl effort boasts two of their best A-Sides (‘Warhead’, ‘Teenage’), and exemplary album cuts such as the rampaging 'Emotional Blackmail', the humorous '500 CC' and the salaciously politically incorrect ' Dirty Girls', a sequel to the first album's blow-job anthem 'All I Wanna Know'. High octane tuneful punk, quite removed from the mindless thrash of The Exploited or GBH, the current rising stars of the scene, and all the better for it. Brilliant.

Additional Notes

TIME AND MATTER WEBSITE: Quite a few copies have appeared on ebay described as caramel or clear brown vinyl, these are not rare mis-pressings but an effect of age on the vinyl as an original clear vinyl copy in our collections is starting to go brown around the edges.
