While I've heard both of these influential bands, I wouldn't say I'm well-versed. The problem is, this doesn't quite capture the essence of the music, which resembles noise more than it does punk. I have to imagine that parts of this album could be slipped into Sonic Youth's NYC Ghosts and Flowers and no one would notice. Loosely calculating, I figure she says this about a hundred times. I never end a scathing review with a cheap punchline.
Disc is unreadable.
I think 'unlistenable' would have been a more appropriate word.
