(4 out of 5 stars)
"Discography cd of this seminal OI !/skinhead band.Starts out with 15 early songs of the band that are plain,square,anthemic skinhead rock'n roll,with great guitar crunch and a simplistic approach that is somewhat boring and repetitive on some of them,but the flow of the music is exciting resulting in a great listen.The next songs,Roi Pearce's later spinoffs of the band (The Warriors and The Resort) are more structured,metallic tinged,demolishing rock n roll,and here is where the real excitement begins.The sound of the whole cd ,on the other side,lacks upper treble (no cymbals) and the bottom end is mainly bass guitars with the drums low in the mix,except for the bonus tracks that feature astonishing drumming.I endorse this to a typical early 80's low budget recordingWorth the price because of the addition of the bonus tracks."
