    It takes a real twat to dismiss this album as "more of the same" from the Thermals. In addition to the fact that such an assessment is flat-ass wrong, what does it matter? I'll take more of the same from one of the best punk outfits going anytime. What, you'd rather have a big change of pace from Brittney? Anyway, the entire disc is a blast, the lyrics are a cut above, the It takes a real twat to dismiss this album as "more of the same" from the Thermals.

Anyway, the entire disc is a blast, the lyrics are a cut above, the limited vocal range of the singer is buttressed by his great use of ryhthm...they create great music with the tools they have (or choose to use).… Collapse

    The Thermals are the rarest of punk bands: a three-chord, three-member outfit whose clamorous drive actually resolves into a riveting, accessible worldview. [#27, p.146]

    Even after repeated listening, the songs on Fuckin' A fail to distinguish themselves from one another.

    Uncomplicated, exuberant melodic thrash. [19 Jun 2004, p.57]
