While Trick Babys combine all the tasty flavors of bawdy and squealing female vocals and punky zest, they also have side dishes of raunchy mid-tempo blues.
I was disappointed with this new offering from these ska masters. Resident ska experts Stacey and Opie agree with me: Something is missing from OoLooLoo.
31 songs. Some are covers. Some were written to sound like other bands. Some songs were changed so many times, you might not even recognize the originals.
Ska driven by punky guitars and quick tempos is my favorite fun music. They could be singing about public execution and my feet would still be dancing.
My White Bread Mom and Moody Jackson have the early ’80s thrash sound (early Beastie Boys, FUs, etc.) that people are now boasting about having been into back in the day.
The best punk rock record to come out of Boston since Rabid Reaction by the Freeze. Not since then have I heard so much honesty and emotion in an album.
