BURN 'EM DOWN 7" 01. Burn 'em Down 02. Urban Rebels Label: Riot City Records Cat #: RIOT 16 Format: 7" Released: 1982 |
Reviews: Pretty uneventful outing. The A-side sounds like a '78 US punk band imitating a '77 UK band; the B-side is more modern-paced, but unimaginative. -Tim Yohannan (from Maximum Rocknroll #3, November/December 1982) More urgent and exciting than their debut 7", this single boasts two vibrant street anthems which update the '77-punk style into the '80s. A powerful guitar mix combined with a slashing vocal attack merge especially well on "Urban Rebel," even though the flip is almost as good. Abrasive Wheels have become a definite contender. -Steve Spinali (from Maximum Rocknroll #4, January/February 1983) |
