What a great album. Not what I expected. I expected early quite violent punk. It's not really that. It's far more melodic than I expected. Tommy Gun is just such a great melody. The guitar work on it as well took me by surprise. It's not 3 chord punk a lot of the time. It's full of kinda 70s hard rockish riffs. Some really great stuff. In particular Stay Free which is shocking in how sweet and honest it is. Cheepskate as well is fantastic. Just great stuff. -
