The Ladonnas

Rock You All Night Long

Scooch Pooch

The CD says “400 RPM,” and they aren’t kidding! Top-notch and top-fuel punk rock, man!

From the get-go, after hearing the first ten seconds of the title track, with guitar melodies strangely similar to the Dickies’ cover of “Nights in White Satin,” I knew this album would add to my growing collection of fantastic punk rock for the year. And it just kept getting better. “No Direction, Just Go” is totally bass-to-the-wall, as are “Thee Inside,” “We Want Your Money,” and “Destruction Man.” Man, the authorities ought to bust the Ladonnas for distributing this digital punk rock meth lab!
