Street Date 8-3-18!

Limited 180gm black vinyl LP pressing. Can't Stand The Rezillos is the debut studio album by Edinburgh-based punk band The Rezillos, released on Sire Records on 21 July 1978 and including the top twenty UK hit Top of the Pops, part of which was used as a jingle on BBC Radio 1. Unusually for a punk rock/new wave group, the album featured several sixties covers, "Glad All Over" (originally a hit for the Dave Clark Five), "Somebody's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight" (originally by Fleetwood Mac) and "I Like It", a Gerry & the Pacemakers hit. The record reached #16 in the UK Albums Chart. Trouser Press called the band "a blast of fresh air compared to the more serious bands of new wave's first charge" and praised the album as "an action-packed document of their pop/camp approach".
