D.O.A. are a tough band to hate. They espouse fun but fervent beliefs and have a sound that’s aged well. This recording showcases their ability to play old-school punk tunes with a force that numerous shoddy poseurs nowadays can’t muster. They also do some not-unwelcome covers of Masters Of War and Eve Of Destruction. The disc is long and certain songs don’t do it for me, but it also contains nuff solidity. Sometimes Joe Keithley sings like a pirate.
D.O.A. hit the Rockit Friday (October 8).
