U-Men Solid Action / Dig it a Hole 7″
Sort of a BUTTHOLES/BIG BLACK on the A-side, while the flip’s got a bit of BEEFEATER sound to it, though a bit more rock. Hard bite.

The best of post-punk without wimping out. In fact, this new one rips. You can hear BIRTHDAY PARTY, CRAMPS, and country blues influences, but the material stands on its own. Reminds me of NAKED RAYGUN and SCRATCH ACID in terms of classic post-punk originality and guts.
Abrasive yet rhythmic post-punk with herky-jerky structures that are somewhat funky. Snarling vocals are the U-MEN’s most interesting facet from my prospective. For BIRTHDAY PARTY fans.
