Reviews & Opinions

DOGTOWNE, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #28, SEPTEMBER 1985: From an underground movie which stars JOAN JETT, TEX (of the HORSEHEADS), Derf Scratch (FEAR), and El Duce (MENTORS). Includes incidental music, dialogue, and some pretty good tunes from SOCIAL DISTORTION, TEX AND THE HORSEHEADS, MENTORS, JOHANNA WENT, and a killer track from DR. KNOW. Although there are some cool tracks here, it's not the kind of thing you're going to slap on the turntable too often.
