Hailed as one of the very first punk records, it's pretty underwhelming to today's ears, most likely. Actually, it was to my ears, too. Everything that this album wanted itself to be appeared to come to fruition on the last track, "(I Live For) Cars and Girls", but even that struggled to get the point across. The Ramones would do this exact same stuff a year later but were a million times more entertaining and efficient doing it. The Dictators gave you sad sack covers of "California Sun" and "I Got You Babe". Take your pick.
