message: this album cannot be objectively categorized as Punk Rock or Hard Rock.  it`s hilarious to see it listed as such, and we all enjoy a smirky chuckle, but we must uphold wkpdia`s integrity.    i`m actually listening to this LP for the 1st time ever as i write this.  track 5, `hurts so bad`- i would love to see a cogent argument that this is punk rock!  even robt christgau couldnt do that!
so what`s polite protocol here?  should i wait 2 months to see if anyone defends this lite, corporate, radio friendly confection as punk, hard rock, or even new wave before changing the article? Fp cassini (talk) 15:22, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

It's too highly produced to be even "New Wave". Another thing that really lets it out of New Wave is that it is _not_ DIY enough (or at all)... all cover songs... studio musicians. Not really edgegy enough...  Punk? BAH!!
It's a bunch of alt-/power-pop tunes (good ones) that I'd have to seriously listen to the album to decide if I'd even say it lives up to Power Pop in its style and execution.
A record company shot at putting Linda out there to ride on the coat-tails of The Go Gos and Joan Jett and various girl-fronted "New Wave" bands.
I'd immediately whack Punk Rock from the description myself; only... I'm not sure what to replace it with!  
Need a new category... hmm... "Corporate Wave", "Label Wave", "Industry Wave", "Co-op Wave" (or "Cop-out Wave"?), "Faux Wave" [or "Fox Wave" -- not for the "chick" for Fox "News" :) ] ?
Not that it's a bad album... good songs by familiar names, with a different twist, that I got as soon as it came out. I'd have to pull out the _turntable_ to revisit this album. :)
