I think I maight have shared a G*U*N*N* tape before but I don't feel like clicking through the archives to check because I'm listening to "Can't Stop" on repeat at maximum volume and pretending I'm a teenager wrecking shit in my bedroom while my parents pound on the door. And still, "Thin Blue Line" is the real banger - the one song that highlights how slightly out of tune the guitar is (the guitar that also sits bizarrely outside of the overall mix in the most interesting way). This punk is furious and this punk feels honest...and as the outro attests: "You wanna hear the truth, hit up the G*U*N*N* from OC."

Listening to this (or U.N.I.T. for that matter), it could just as well be 1984, yet 40 years later, this is still the quintessential soundtrack to the times in which we live. Go figure. Shit is terrifying indeed, as you've said. Thanks for all the pathos.
