Description

Yes! The dickies, with this superb album are what so called punk rockers, Green Day always should have been. Fantastic catchy, sparkly, jangly power punk anthems, all under 3 minutes long (theres no flies on these boys) Yes you can have your 'American idiot', by all means have your 'Dookie', but do not overlook 'The Incredible Shrinking Dickies' in your quest to collect a back catalogue of 70s & early 80s punk/new wave must have top 100 albums. Dont think im getting carried away here. Its no all time classic. Nevertheless it has its place in american late 70's new wave.

I once had the great pleasuremore… of watching The Dickies, play live, as they toured to promote this very album. I remember we had to wait past 1.00 am untill they came onstage. Their live act was so fast(faster even than the album) that they had played thier entire repetoire, including The Banana splits song, twice, all before the clock reached 1.40 am! Nevertheless a good time was had by all, and they certainly put their all into the performance of this album. I wonder if they have reformed like so many of those bands of that period ? Might be worth a look see ?
