Reviews: I knew something was wrong when I noticed that the fuggin' hole in the dang thing was too small!! I finally managed to get it on the turntable, but then I couldn't get it off. Actually this is a neat record, lots of variety, from thrash (good Offenders cut) to art joke bands. The only "metal" band, despite the LP's title, are three reputedly cute but unbearably awful sisters. But humor abounds, and it's nice to know that all this fermentation exists in Austin. Well worth a listen. -G.I. (from Flipside #43, Fall 1984) Now what the hell's goin' on here? Well, it's an electric sampler containing a bunch of psychotic Texans doing all sorts of weird shit. The Fearless Iranians from Hell, Napalm, Feast of Fools, and Toejam perform demented experimental thrash, then you've got some incredibly inane hard rock (Heather Leather), schizoid psychedelia (Scratch Acid and the Technicolor Yawns), "country thrash" (the Hickoids), metallic sleaze (the Jeffersons), doodling (Meat Joy), and powerhouse thrash (the Offenders). This must be what the Butthole Surfers listen to all day. -Jeff Bale (from Maximum Rocknroll #16, August 1984) |
