    A gloriously demented throwback to/sendup of everything from 1950s surf rock and rockabilly to the blistering ferocity of early punk acts like the Sex Pistols and the Ramones with a little AC/DC-style hard rock thrown in for good measure, this is an album that consistently delights throughout. Nothing here is particularly new or innovative (and that's hardly the point anyway), but theA gloriously demented throwback to/sendup of everything from 1950s surf rock and rockabilly to the blistering ferocity of early punk acts like the Sex Pistols and the Ramones with a little AC/DC-style hard rock thrown in for good measure, this is an album that consistently delights throughout. Nothing here is particularly new or innovative (and that's hardly the point anyway), but the hooks are strong, the energy is palpable, and the distinctly analog sound hearkens you back to a simpler time when rock music was the ultimate form of rebellion and self-expression.

    Highlights here include the disorientated '60s pop of I Can Recall It All and the snappy, Troggs-like title track. [Oct 2019, p.106]

    This one feels a bit brighter, more pop, than usual, though the Stooges lift of "Some Unknown Reason" is dankly bloodied. [Sep 2019, p.24]

    Amazingly, Childish doesn't show a single sign of slowing down or losing a step. At this rate, he may indeed be the last punk standing; he's certainly one of the few still making records as impressive as this.
