Bored! – “Self Titled EP ‘Take It Out On You’ & More” – [Afterburn Records]

Influences such as the Sex Pistols, Black Sabbath, and the Stooges figure heavily in the music of this late ’80s/early ’90s Australian band. Add some AC/DC and MC5 to the mix, maybe a dash of skate punk, and there you have it: 18 tracks of loud, sweaty, working class, ear-shredding craziness. Going deaf has never been so much fun. A few cover versions here (Pistols, Sabbath, Dead Boys, etc.)
