Reviews: This buoyant sampler of Boston-area bands concentrates on accessible, up-tempo power-pop and punk--and manages it with surprising consistency. The FLIES, EDGE, and UNDERACHIEVERS vie for top honors, but the odds-on favorite is a slice of country swing (!) by SCRUFFY THE CAT. No thrash here; just agreeable, aggressive hard pop and punk--the kind you listened to and liked way back in '79. -Steve Spinali (from Maximum Rocknroll #21, January 1985)
