Here are the Sonics is a manic album. The Sonics have turned rock and roll on its head. The play loud and fast and they scream. Even the themes of their original songs are different from anything anyone's singing.
This kind of rock and roll isn't just raw, it's bloody. What the Beatles and the Rolling Stones are doing seems quaint in comparison.
It's too bad the sound quality sucks. It's all treble and no bass; it's like listening to the band through an aluminum tube.
This is an amazing album and is well worth listening to. They do good cover songs, but it's their originals that are superb. It could have been a game changer, but the Sonics seemed to have fallen off the earth after this. I guess they were ahead of their time.
The album might not seem very good at first. I did enjoy it the first time I heard it, but it took a while to really grow on me. The Witch, Do You Love Me, Boss Hoss, Have Love, Will Travel, Psycho, Money (That's What I Want), Walkin' the Dog, Strychnine and Good Golly Miss Molly are great songs.
★★★★★★★★☆☆
