Arsenic Milkshake Programme Atomique cassette
Debut seven-track release from Lyon, France. Upbeat, driving, simplistic, RAMONES-esque rock’n’roll. Some pretty catchy songwriting here. A little digging showed that the drummer is no slouch and has one helluva RAMONES beat. Relentless! While I very much enjoy a sweeping generalization and respect the band’s somewhat shitheaded “No God, No Mastering” stance, I can’t help but think the recording would actually benefit from a final EQ-ing and some minor adjustments in the sequencing. If only there was a standard process which might take care of such issues.
