Skate Death, now this is one kick'n album. From "Food is Good" and "Skate Death" I was jammn out all the way through at no point did i feel like i was listening to reruns of the last track. I will not compare them to anyone I am not a big fan of comparison's. If I find a way to post up some streaming audio of this we will revist this album, Hopefully the Band does not get upset with posting up a track of this Kick Ass album. This is an album that definetly can not be left behind in the 80's. Interesting note on this as i was searching through albums on discogs I notice that it look liked someone did a cover of the song Gargoyles, the track doesnt show up as that title on the album but "thrap" is the one they must be talking about bieng the mention of gargoyle's in this track. The name of that band who covered this track was plainfield, they were originaly from Michigan but moved to California -"Smelly Mustafa". This was on a split album with another band called Melt Banana, I couldnt tell you if it really is the same track because well, it would cost me $200.00 so far to buy this album on discogs. Maybe someone has some info on this album. Old punk is pretty damn expensive sometimes wouldnt you say? Punk Rock!..
