#1219 60 Ft. Dolls - The Big 3

God, there's this weightlessness to those riffs, to those vocals, everything just whips like well-designed paper planes to the heart of the matter. The bones of Gang of Four and the Clash are on display here, that punk/post-punk angular, athletic shouting against the crushing quo of the banal. The drums are thin and low, the bass low and low, but those guitar lines weave around it all, propulsive and pointed. It's a lot of fun, simple like the best of punk but as melodic as after-punk, angry, but finding the fun in the anger, full of head-bobbing, fist-pumping moments 4/5
