Music reviews of The Adolescents/Welcome to Reality/All by Myself
Music Review: Classic, but overrated
Rating: 3 Stars
It's hard to surpass the way the tracks on this record mirror the thoughts and feelings of punks and hardcore fans. Songs like "Amoeba" and "Kids of the Black Hole" express themes like teen disaffection and anger, with emotion and clarity - and nearly the entire record sustains a sense of mosh-pit energy that other bands have only tried to emulate. Moreover, this record shows the transition from old style punk into aggressive hardcore, making it a kind of mini-history lesson in popular music. The Adolescents' debut album also fits like a jigsaw piece into the skate lifestyle. It's as much an expression of a lifestyle as a musical statement.
While it has a powerful, aggressive sound, the debut LP by the Adolescents isn't completely consistent. There are maybe two or three standout tracks, accompanied by songs that have energy, but aren't the kind of songs you'll play again and again. You may get off on the general aggro, but as an album needs more classic songs to fill out the record. I was really impressed by the Adolescents live, but as a record, it needs more, and better. Time, too, has exerted an adverse affect on the record; while the music remains powerful, the lyrics are frequently unpolished.
That said, this debut LP by the Adolescents continues to be influential.
