 BROKEN
HEROES- I Told U Once (Street
Anthem Records) If you like Sham 69 better than Gang of Four, you’ll
probably like this. If you’ve ever lied to someone while high on
cocaine, this disc is for you. If
you’ve ever chewed on a pimiento and then realized it was a bloody snot,
you can’t go wrong here. If
you’ve ever thought about having sex with your cousin, you could listen
to this while indulging that fantasy.
If you’re looking for something new or original with this
release, you’re not going to find it.
But if you like traditionally-themed street punk with occasional
helpings of old school ska, then you probably won’t give a fuck that
these guys aren’t reinventing the wheel here.
If I had to pick a favorite on I Told U Once, I’d most
likely choose the opener, “Sick,” a pounding, tough guy duet that’s
impossible not to like (despite the puking at the end).
And if you’re ready for me to shut the hell up already, you’ve
got your wish. –Ben Hunter
