Reviews:

Although dodgy sound quality mars some of the tracks on the MINUTEMEN's latest opus, this retrospective album offers a variety of unreleased studio and live compositions (including gems like "I Shook Hands" and "Base King"). Not all of the songs here exploit this band's unique punk-funk stylings, but their fans will find interesting moments among these twenty-seven tracks.
-Steve Spinali (from Maximum Rock'n'Roll #13, April/May 1984)
