This disc came just in time to remind me what I originally loved about
punk rock-sometimes, after listening to it all day long, I start to
wonder if my dad was right all those years ago and that it all really
was just noise. This disc features some of the Grand Poobahs from the
'80's punk scene, including Excene Cervenkova, Joe Strummer, and The
Vandals, plus a lot of other cool surprises, including a Vandals cover
by Assorted Jelly Beans and a cover of "They're Coming to America"
(hell if I know who did the original) by Me First & the Gimme Gimmes.
Also on here are Pansy Division and the Mr. T Experience-like I said,
all the classics are here. And, just like those wonderful old vinyl
punk rock compilations, the liner notes are full of political
commentary, including a reprint of the first 30 Articles of the
Declaration of Independence. Only diff is that this is a CD and if
this had been punk rock '80's vinyl, there would have been a huge,
kick-ass poster inside, and probably some stickers, too. Ah,
nostalgia....
