Box of Fish Slap Em Round the Gills 12″
Their sound is a raw, crunching guitar-based one with post-punky effects, and it really works. Lots of power, edge, drive, and diversity within the medium-tempo genre. Good.

Another fine release from this great, fuzzy Aussie garage band. Although some of their stuff Is really comparable to KILLING JOKE, BIRTHDAY PARTY, and even FLIPPER, a lot of people might find them a little derivative, but I think they’re a whole mess of fun. Makes you feel dirty just slapping them on the turntable.
On this Australian post-punk release, a noisy fuzz guitar overlays heavy bass and drum rhythms, thereby setting an ominous tone. While it may be a bit repetitious, there are definitely some original ideas here.
