I’ve really been in the mood for simple, fun punk music lately, and I can’t think of a better modern band that fits that description than The Briefs. Part glam-punk like The Rezillos, part shout-along punk like The Damned, and part pop-punk like The Ramones, these guys have plenty of swagger and snarl and funny outfits like you expect out of the typical punk band, but these guys actually back it up by having really good songs. Although nothing here is as great as “(Looking Through) Gary Glitter’s Eyes” from their previous album “Off the Charts”, this record still has more than enough great songs that will make it nearly impossible to just sit still and listen.
