This is Bad Taste Vol. 5
Various
(Bad Taste)
A 16-track affair from the Bad Taste stable of bands which runs from the power pop of Danko Jones to the aggro punk of Hard-Ons & Satanic Surfers. This is punky altenative aggro-rock at its rawest and ranges from the brilliant to so-so. I reviewed the Hard-Ons' latest offering a few months ago, as well as All Systems Go and Danko Jones. The three bands perfectly sum up the variety on this compilation. Other bands included are Langhorns, Four Square and Logh. At 16 tracks it's good value for money, since it's priced as a single and well worth the cost of entrance to see what this indy label is up to these days. Fans of this sub-genre of music should grab this one right way, and those wondering what the hell it is might do well picking this up. Damn good value and damn good fun!
