CD Reviews

I wanna be like Brody when I grow up...
Eleanor | Bangor, ME | 04/02/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"So some of today's punk rock purist say the Distilers are for posers, but they can sod off. This album is fabulous. Hard, fast, and totally passionate. The Distillers makes your blood pump faster, and adrenaline surge throught your veins. The songs have that beautiful simplicity and edge that is almost completely unique to the late seventies punk scene. Brody does proud to the old and all but forgotten tradition of great female-fronted punk acts like The Slits, The X Ray Spex, and The Plasmatics.



My personal favorite tracks off this album are "The World Comes Temblin'," "L.A. Girl," and "Open Sky," but there's a lot of great tunes here. Pop it in, pump it up, and slamdance-round your living room!"

"First off, in case you haven't noticed, it's nearly impossible to read anything about the Distillers or Brody Armstrong for that matter, without hearing about Rancid. Frankly, comparisons like that undermine them immensely.What you'll get on here is a lot of hard-hitting pure punk rock, but that doesn't mean the music's stupid. Even if you're not a fan of the genre, I'm amazed at how little credibility the band's gotten from the general public. The brash vocals and the pounding bass just make up a deal of intensity that, yes, is usually reserved for first releases. However, this album is less raw than their sophomore release, and less structured as well. The Distillers take influences and sounds from all over the spectrum to make an intelligent, memerable record.Lyrically, they're unique as well. Brody wails about the problems of the world, but also does an awesome Patti Smith cover ("Ask the Angels"), and screams about problems closer to home for the rest of us. Condescending punk rock? Hardly."
It's great

"I heard "LA Girl" on the "Give 'em the Boot II" complilation and I couldn't wait for this CD to come out. As someone else said, Brody sounds like a cross between Courtney Love and Tim Armstrong. That's hitting it right on the head. This CD is song after song of hard hitting raw LA style punk rock. No slow songs, no experimental dub stuff, just pure punk. It's plain excellent. My advice to you, pick up "Give 'em the Boot II," listen to "LA Girl," if you don't love the song don't buy The Distillers CD, if you do - grab it."
