The Hellacopters: Super Shitty to the Max! (1996)

Easily this underrated garage band's grittiest and most forceful album. Still, this doesn't excuse the fact that about half of the tracks are quite skippable, including the unforgiveable twenty-minute sludgefest "Spock in My Rocket". Only the undeniably rousing "(Gotta Get Some Action), Now!," perhaps still their greatest song provides the catchiness, insanity, or the rambunctiousness of any of the cuts on Payin' the Dues. Still, if you're into garage rock of the newer sort, you should give this a listen.

5/10
