The cool thing about this record is they play straightforward rocknroll without the pretentiousness. The lyrics come straight from the heart and have a classical rnr sound that seems so familiar. I feel the familiarity through the songs "I Miss My Records" & "Desperate Times" in particular. They remind me of the first time I listened to Darkness On The Edge Of Town by Bruce Springsteen. Even though their punkier influences shine through on "Dancing.." and "Look Out For The Cops," this band exhibits a very good classic rock sound. It is totally rocking in a mellow sense, and leaves one with a longing for more of their thoughtful and soulful stylings. Badlands ain't got shit on the new stuff from the Used Kids! Not much of the punk style, but the rocknroll is to be appreciated here. Enjoy, and roll that pack of Marlies into your sleeve till it burns through. Catch this one now!!
