Your favorite band's favorite band. With this album, RKL went from being a great hardcore band to being arguably the most balls-to-the-wall "progressive punk" band to come along since the Bad Brains. The fact that this came out in 1987 and basically kick-started the entire SoCal punk explosion is criminally under-reported and unsung. To say that RKL were probably the most talented punk band from a technical standpoint is just a fact - nobody around at the time was doing anything like this. Without this album, NOFX, Lagwagon, A Wilhelm Scream and 90% of pop punk bands wouldn't exist, period. Anyone who likes good rock music should give it a listen.
