Long title, short album. I was very tempted just to write my shortest review ever simply by repeating the title - Superdragsmackheadpsychoplasticgogopunk. It is a remarkably accurate depiction of what's on offer here - punk meets metal meet industrial meets whatever…….
White Zombie, The Ramones, Blackmail are all names I've jotted down whilst listening to this. These tunes are all punk/metal assaults on your eardrums. I find it quite difficult to distinguish between individual tunes. The picks of the bunch are the lumbering Renaissance Man, I Wanna Know and the Ramones style romp of All Tied Up.
I think most of the people surfing into Mood Swings would prefer something more melodic. Listening to this has had a curious effect, because I've just bought the White Zombie remix album. For most Mood Swings readers this has got to be a listen before you purchase proposition.
