Remember buying this on a sweet maroon vinyl from Depthcharge (RIP) when it came out - probably the main reason being it had a pair of vans on the cover and we were all skateboard dudes then. This LP is quite simply...awesome. Relatively unknown to most but an much loved fave among the Thirsk oldies. Polished, well produced - SoCal styled, tight and crunchy - this was a much more mature, evolved sound which offered a fresher take from the more chaotic, ever satuated, 80's sxe scene. Dan O'Mahoney's (NFAA/Carry Nation etc) distinctive vocals compliment the precision of Kevin Murphy's (Farside) foot-tapping riffage spot on. From the pacey and catchy a hell 'Destroy the Dream' to the more slower, more thoughtful 'Show Me' there's some good tunes going on here with power and integrity. Still got it, still listen to it, still look at the cover and think 'rad'.



Dave Heroes Says: Highly underated and way ahead of their time...better than that rubbish pop band of the same name.
