4.0 excellent | Alabaster Jones | June 6th 17 | Though it may be about half redundant given that seven songs from Defiance end up here on a fifteen-song compilation, the other eight songs were previously unreleased and have the unwaveringly high quality that encapsulates Dead Moon and makes Thirteen Off My Hook a worthy listen. There's really only one thing that harms this compilation; the level of variety that the band usually works with on their records has been cut down to just catchy, beautifully raw garage punk jams. The drunken, late-night drive atmosphere is still very much alive, and the consistency is still in play, it's just not as potent. The previously unreleased material could've easily slid into any one of the albums before this one and fit perfectly, so there's no doubting their quality, especially the early combo of "D.O.A." and "War Baby". Just goes to show how marvelous of a trio Dead Moon really were; even their castaways are gold.
