Label - Alternative Tentacles

Producer - East Bay Ray - Norm

Country - USA

Genre - Hardcore Punk

The Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables (1980)

Meh, another punk album, another painful hour. Political name (surprise), satirical lyrics (surprise, yawn), lots of outrageous song titles (yawn). Occasionally it was funny, but when it comes to punk like this, you either have to be there, or have wanted to be there. It just doesn't stand the test of time, or good hearing.

Score - 1/10
Recommended - No

Label - Talkin' Loud

Producer - MJ Cole

Country - UK

Genre - UK Garage


I wish I had more to say about this one but I was just plain bored. Admittedly I know nothing about the genre but this just sounded like some boring piano, bass and a generic female elevator music voice. Overproduced, no soul.

Score - 2/10
Recommended - No
