This is a record that was well ahead of its time, addressing the arbitrary gender binary in 1992 and dismantling the co-opted ?punk? ethos via dizzying, unconventional song structures and arrangements. There?s a little Captain Beefheart in the proceedings, as Sharon Topper shouts atop the whirlwind instrumentation. While flawed ? there?s not enough variation to keep the songs consistently interesting ? Speed Yr. Trip understands what ?punk? really is and, to that end, presents an uncompromising vision.
