Rating: 9 young administrations out of 10
I saw the Mothballs a crazy number of times over the years I lived in the Bay Area, one of the funnest local live bands and they played out a lot. Their songs are incredibly catchy and you can't help but dance and sing along. This release has four songs, all great, the best being "Walking Down a Street Called Love" which just worms it's way into my brain for days every time I hear it. It's been years since they broke up and I last saw them play (often in the drummer's dirt floor basement), but I think about this band a lot.
So many great things about this record - for one, the b-side plays inside-out instead of the normal way. I'm sure that confused a ton of people and the band probably loves that. Also, etched into the run outs:
A-side: Mothballs 40 oz Coaster
B-side: We wrote all these songs!
