Three tracks to note on this companion to the hit cyberthriller: 1) A funky and inconsequential debut by the David Byrne-less Talking Heads (now just The Heads) featuring Deborah Harry; 2) A mesmerizing, The The-like tune ("A Big Day in the North") marking the American debut of Black Grape, the promising new venture for Happy Mondays founder Shaun Ryder; and 3) "Party Man", a trademark mid-tempo Peter Gabriel yawner co-written to no apparent effect by Tori Amos.
"Destroyed" is possibly THE greatest pop punk record of all times! With infectiously catchy Ramones-style songs and lyrics about porn, beer and junk food, this album is a true CLASSIC. [Toxxy]
Long overdue, Sloppy Seconds finally released Endless Bummer in 2008, an 18-track manifesto to add to the junk rock canon. The disc’s title might suggest a depressing theme in the hands of a less inspired band, but Sloppy Seconds promise to make it a fitting new chapter in the story of that never-ending party they started on a summer night years ago. The kings of junk rock? Long may they reign!
