Reviews
Strictly worth it for the artwork, the b side is hard to stomach, slivers rule though
Some quality punk tracks on side A, experimental, artsy stuff on side B. Germs, Modern Warfare, Hari Kari, Shattered Faith and Minutemen contribute quality tracks. Good Sin 34 and Redd Kross with Dez Cadina on vocals. In my opinion it's the third best in the "Life is" trilogy.
Good comp.
