Not bad for a placeholder EP.
-
Alternative PressParts of the result feel overly defensive and overly techno-y, but "Bang! Bang!" will blow your drawers off... [#155, p.85]
-

Mostly, From the Desk of Mr. Lady comes off like sub-standard material that didn't make it on to last year's full-length.
-
At its weakest moments, From the Desk of Mr. Lady sounds so '80s or early '90s, teetering dangerously on the brink of nostalgia.
-

-
Another smart, danceable collection of cultural subversion.
-
There's still plenty of grating screaming and yelling on From the Desk of Mr. Lady, underscored by a strong punk ethos.
