Great punk
The songs, with hilarious lyrics and silly themes, also contain some of the best musical compositions you'll find in punk (excluding, of course, Black Flag). This is, by far, one of the greatest punk albums ever pressed. These songs will certainly get the blood pumping! Great classic music here!.


...Onorix...?!
Attitude that would startle even Hitler on a South Park Sunday School picnic bonanza; with the Brady Bunch having been recruited by the Reagan Youth for A What IF. Fear is contagious, and so are the tracks on this CD. . Who cares musical journey. . . that would make Nancy wish she said "yes".


belushi loved them...
this is a great record. . belushi loved them and even deigned to make a cameo on saturday night live so they could be that week's musical guest. . . (10/31/81). . . and that was before the record had even been released. . ! a few months later, belushi was dead. . !.


This is the best that LA punk had to offer?
If so, no wonder the genre died an unmornful death. It has been said that after X and Black Flag, Fear was the best band during LA's brief punk heyday of 1980-1982. The tragedy is that Fear sounded like they had enough talent and ideas to overcome whatever punk stereotyping the record industry insisted on manifesting. THE RECORD starts out promising enough with Let's Have A War, Beef Baloney, and Camarillo but then descends into brainless, potty mouth hackery that gave this music a bad name. Between this record and their performance in The Decline Of Western Civilization, it appears that Fear was just another bunch of talentless charletrans who were only in it for the money. The great rock and roll swindle indeed. Not Recomended.


Ehhhh...it's OKAY...
The only song that I can tolerate to listen to on the CD is "I Love Living in the City". Not my favorite punk album, but it'll do. I'll just stick to Dropkick Murphys.
