Classic Record Reviews: The Adolescents

Hello, this is a review of Adolescents by the Adolescents. Like a lot of punk, it goes full force in a short time, but when you hear the first riff you know it's gonna be a good song. The first song is like bait, not so strong, but when you hear "Who is Who" you're probably traumatized. In some songs they have slow and awkward parts, and riffs and sounds that you probably haven't heard in a punk song. When I listen to this album it reminds me of when you're hanging out with a friend, it is awesome, but goes quick, or taking a pill you get it over with pretty quick, but the difference is that pills suck and the Adolescents don't. I think that the Adolescents are my favorite punk band. I used to think it was Black Flag, but I've changed my mind after listening to "Amoeba" eight bajillion times I've thought otherwise. That is what I think of this record.

  5. Amoeba and Brats in Battalions were my favorites back in the day! Great review. Indeed, unlike a pill, Adolescents don't suck.
