Sudden Impact No Rest From the Wicked LP
Metal damage, leads, and metal structures overwhelm whatever non-cliche aspects remain. Pretty driving, but hard to take or sift through to get any fun out of.

Really powerful garage rock’n’roll with lyrics that are unpretentious but not dumb. Sounds like 76 era pub rock’n’roll with some 77 hindsight. Title track is an apt anthem.
Canada’s YYY play real fast punk rather than thrash. The tempos are driving, the guitars are plenty loud, the singing exhibits a lot of emotion, and the lyrics are very thoughtful. I like every song individually, but then played back-to-back, they tend to run together a bit due to the unusually consistent tempos and vocal inflections. It’s a high-powered debut, though.
