Baby, prepare yer ass fer it's inevitable whuppin' by their 16-cut 1996 album, "Popular Favorites", which we are heralding as THE goddamn R&R platter by which all so-called "R&R" shall be judged! 16 utterly rockin' cuts.

makes my veins pop out on my upper head
Play it loud. Fight with your neighbors. Run from the cops. Rip your jeans. Text an ex. Hurt your hand punching drywall with concrete behind it or something. Call in sick at 11:30.

rock and roll at its best- loud wild and raw
These guys are what rock and roll is all about, to paraphrase a song of theirs. They have the whole package; a great, double guitar attack, pounding drums, slightly unhinged, deranged and fantastic vocals, great songs. If I were forced to give them a label, I would call them real rock and roll. They are obviously no strangers to punk, like the Mummies, they arent punk bands but its part of the mix and influence. I would highly recommend you get this. For fans of the Cramps, the Mummies, and the Gories

One of the 90s best rock 'n' roll releases
Is it just coincidence that all the best punk albums of the 90s for the most part were released by Crypt Records? "Destroy-Oh-Boy" by the New Bomb Turks", "Get Action" by Teengenerate, "30 Sizziling Slabs" by the Devil Dogs, and this awesome and flawless punk 'n' roll collection of songs. Why can't there be more bands out there today as dedicated to saving rock 'n' roll as these guys? From "Christina" to "Emergency", there is not a single skippable trashy track. Also, the boys show an incredible sense of humor, as witnessed by the tunes "Guitar Shop A--Hole" and "Do the Milkshake". One of the 90s best, I'm eager to buy more CDs by this band. The true sounds of nu-garage.

THIS IS IT
This was the best Rock'n'Roll band of the nineties - maybe leaving the Devil Dogs aside. This band had it all - more SOUL and ENERGY than anyone could take. The fact all the successor bands (Cool Jerks, Compulsive Gamblers, South Filthy, Reigning Sound)in their best moments still sound like the Oblivians as soon as Jack Yarber or Greg Carwtwright write & sing the songs shows how much their style and sound were unique. And "Popular Favorites" is their best record. Buy it - THIS is it.
