#736 Mission of Burma - Signals, Calls and Marches

Raw, hooky-but-nasty punk rock with plenty of smart/dumb/weird charm: basically the ingredients that make bands like Minutemen and Fugazi tick, bridging late 70's post-punk disdain and 80's post-post-punk melodicism.

The second half flags, but there's still something exciting and new about this even now, some magic energy captured that still shines. I can only imaging the impact it had in nineteen eighty goddamn one 4/5
