Review by: Chris Bress
It took me a while to get into the Starvations LP. It kept reminding me of other bands and it was pissing me off a little bit but eventually the well written punk songs filtered their way in and I could enjoy it.
This 7″ is very much like the tracks off the LP. The Starvations seem to have a whole host of influences from bands like the Gun Club, Calexico, Antioch Arrow (Gems Of Masochism period), The Birthday Party and at times they even sound like the Levellers!
I have to say that even though the Starvations are more of a 7″ band the LP has some much better tracks on it than this single so Id pick that up first if you wanted a bit of country/goth tinged punk rock on a fancy label.
