This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
And they do mean fast.
This veteran skate-thrash foursome burns some serious rubber on its latest disc, blazing through 15 tracks in the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it time of 26 minutes. (I got up to answer the phone without hitting pause, and when I came back, I’d missed two songs — and it was a wrong number!) Suffice to say these high-speed punk anthems don’t have much fat. But there’s still plenty of meat on the bones — the possessed ’boarders cram more beats, brains and metal riffs into 100 seconds than some bands do in 100 songs. If Hüsker Dü hadn’t already clamed the title, they could have called it Land Speed Record.
