Headfirst Editor's Pick
"The last truly legendary Oi band (bite me) affront you with their lovable, yobbish and hooky-as-hell brand of delinquent streetpunk. They’re sitting ugly atop this typically stacked Shitty Futures outing with blown-out lo-fi garage yelpers Virvon Varvon and rancid D-beat skate-punks Rank. Proper FFO: The Business, Angelic Upstarts, Black Time, the Urinals, Bones Brigade."
