5.0 out of 5 stars Raw as hell, October 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Younger Louder & Snottier (Audio CD)

This album contains an early, rougher mix of "Young, Loud and Snotty" that, amazingly, sounds even more dangerous than the official release. I can't even listen to the original any more. The Dead Boys have not since their split up sounded more alive than they do here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reveals the Dead Boys' Twin Guitar Attack, December 24, 2002

This review is from: Younger Louder & Snottier (Audio CD)

As others have mentioned, this is a terrific mix of the classic Young, Loud, and Snotty album. In particular, this mix gives you a better sense for the bands' twin guitar attack. On many of their songs, both guitar players (Cheetah Chrome and Jimmy Zero) played distinctive lead parts simultaneously. This was evident in their live shows. But on the Genya Raven mix of YL&S, she usually favors one guitar with the other more buried. On this mix, you can really hear the interplay between the two guitar players. I'll also note that it contains the full length version of "Ain't Nothing to Do" (with Stiv yelling "hey, Cheetah!") which was previously only available as a B-side of an old UK-only single. I highly recommend this record as a worthwhile companion to the original Genya Raven mix.

5.0 out of 5 stars classic, August 9, 2001

This review is from: Younger Louder & Snottier (Audio CD)

This is the epitome of 77 punk rock. This band was on the level of all the greats like the Ramones, Sex Pistols, Clash, etc. but never recieved the regognition that they deserve. This is a truely essential album, so buy it already.
